"My dad adored his sisters and missed his brothers Maurice and Martin and his sister Margaret. He loved visiting with his nieces and nephews too. He was glad to have been able to see Alan and Meghan on their visit home."

"Dad loved the girls especially his granddaughters."

"Grandpa,
I will miss your fishing stories but will think of you whenever I am fishing. I'm glad you are not in a lot of pain anymore. I'm sure you're up there fishing catching the big one that use to always get away.

Love,

Luke"

"Daddy,
You are the strongest man I have ever known. No matter how old I am, you will always be my daddy. You were so brave and suffered in pain for so long. I am at peace that you are no longer suffering. I know when I have something important to share with you that I will automatically pick up the phone only to soon realize our earthly connection has been broken. I will cherish the memories and your infinite wisdom. I will continue to lead my life with the principals that you instilled and continue to strive to make you proud. We are your legacy.
Love Always Your Little Girl,
Florence (Flo)"

"Ray and Deanie have been friends or over 50 years.

They are both loved by my wife and I.
Ray, we will miss you very much and the world has lost a true warrior."
