    Dear John, Judy, Jill, Jim, Joe. Your Mom and DAD were blessed with 57 wonderful years together. I'm sure she was waiting for him, probably with a golf club, on a beautiful , well groomed gulf coarse. My prayers are with all of you.

    Dear Jim. John, Joe, Judy, Jill and family, so very sorry to read that you have now lost your wonderful father. He lived a long and great life, but we still don't want to give them up. He and your mom were two of the best people in the world. I really didn't become close to them until later in our lives, but Iearned to loved them dearly. You were so fortunate and blessed to have had them as your parents. Everyone should be so blessed. I have not seen any of your family since my beautiful cousin Joanne passed away, but have thought of you and prayed for you many times in the last five years. I look forward to Jill's Christmas letter every year. I sure would love to be there Saturday and will be, in heart and mind. I will be thinking and praying for you. I've enclosed my email, please contact me sometime in the future, when you have time. You have our deepest sympathy. God bless and love always, Lynn & family.
