Dear Sher and Todd,

Though our hearts are breaking with the thought of never seeing Devins’ bright smile again, we are comforted by the fact that he lived a happy life, always giving others a reason to smile. From nursery school through college he had been a part of Dan’s life, and we are thankful for that. Our family extends its deepest sympathy. We will keep him, and you in our thoughts and prayers always. The memories will help us along the path of acceptance and give us a reason to smile through the tears. We are here whenever you need us.

Shan, Doug, Dan, Kerri and Emily McManus

Sher, Please accept my deepest sympathies. Steve and I worked together in the 1980s; I don't think you and I ever met. He was always so very proud of his children
