Dear Family,
I am so sorry to hear of Fred’s passing. I used to deliver meals to both of them. They were an absolute delight. I am happy they are now both together in Jesus’s arms. I am sure you have many happy memories, enjoy them, they will make you smile. Take care.

I am so very sorry to hear about Uncle Fred. Words can’t begin to express how I feel for all you kids. I thought I had it rough with one and a half years between. I am so very sorry, I can’t make it up this time. My heart goes out to all of you and I will keep you I’m my prayers. Glad him and Aunt Jill are together again and just maybe playing cards with my mom and dad. I love y’all.

Dear Family
Uncle Fred is at peace now and reunited with his beloved Jill. I remember the lovely times I spent weekends and holidays at their home when I moved back to Michigan. They were always so welcoming. I will always remember Uncle Fred with a smile on his face for I don’t recall a time when there wasn’t one. Ours prayers and thoughts are with you all.
Love Leigh Ann and Jeff
