Dear Chris and Family,
We were very sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. He was such a very special man and lived a great and long life. So many stories and chats we have had about your Dad, Chris. Our visit to the cottage so many years ago is still remembered and talked about. God bless you, Chris. Keep the wonderful memories fresh in your mind and you will aways have your Dad with you!
Love,
Carol and Cliff and family

Dear Cousins--Your Dad, our Uncle Sunny, brought much love and laughter to our family. I'm remembering the early Young Christmas parties celebrated in your home; sleepovers at the Russer cottage and at your cottage....ever optimistic, happy and glad to be with his family & sharing his faith through prayer or a reflective story from Robert Fulgrum. I'm sure they are having quite a Welcome Home party for him in heaven today, complete with limburger cheese and onion sandwiches! He led by example and helped all around him, touching lives wherever he went. God bless him, and God bless you all.
