Sending you our deepest condolences for the loss of your father. He was a very special person, the quote in the obituary is very true, he truly lived. I was privileged to learn much from this man who opened my eyes about many truths. He was of very high intellect as well as very warm and loving. I truly have never met anyone like him. How blessed we were to have him share his wisdom and kindness with us. He was a true gentleman and he will be deeply missed. God bless you.

It is with great sorrow that I just learned of your father's passing. (Also of your mother's). I wish I had found out in time to attend his service and pay my respects. I know he loved his sons very much. Over the years I have met students of his that had the greatest respect for him (as did i). I don't know if you remember Mark but he offers his condolences as well. We will keep you in our prayers.

Mr. Seifert was a great teacher and mentor. Our friendship went way beyond the classroom and I'll always remember his wise counsel throughout my adult life. May you rest in heaven Mr. Seifert.
