  1. Terry and I want to express our sympathy for the loss of your Father, Grandfather, Great Grandfather.Our thoughts will be with you this week-end.

  2. Larry and Sharon, it was with great sadness I read of your father’s paassing. But I can see him and my dad and Howard mason and the others all getting a card game together in Heaven. Peace be with all of you and your families…MY prayers are for you finding solace in knowing he is in very good company at his final destination ….. Always your friend, Rita Bigley (Shaw)

  3. I was sorry to read of the passing of Dutch. Your parents and mine shared a great deal of history together and if I am not mistaken it was they who were responsible for their getting together. I will always remember Dutch as a kind, patient person. He loved his shop and like to tinker with things especially his lawnmowers. He and your mother were very kind to my mother after my dad passed away. I know that he has left you and your families with many happy memories.
