Pat , Louie and families-

I’m so sorry about your mom. She was always so kind and I loved visiting with her when our folks got together. She has many family and friends waiting for her in heaven and you can be sure she’ll find our dads and Lyle sitting at a picnic table having a beer.

Louie and family, I am so sorry for your family’s loss. Words never provide the comfort we all need when we lose a loved one but they do show that others are thinking of you with great love and caring. I hope th good memories that each of you has will help you through this very difficult and emotional time. Wishing you all peace and comfort.
