Dear Mrs. McHugh, Fern and Lisa,
It was sad to hear of your loss. One of my fond memories involves the fun we all had at the weddings too many years ago to mention, especially decorating the tent.
Remembering that fun made me remember that we never really lose people. Though he will know longer be with his girls the memories continue.
Also I bet he is back swimming everyday!
Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Aunt Elaine, Missy, Fern, Lisa, Michele and Dee,
You and your children all have my prayers and sympathy at this sad time. I have fond memories of Uncle Dick, especially his infectious smile. I know he will be missed by many here on earth but I also know he has already been welcomed by many more now that he is in God's presence. I am sorry I am unable to join you for the services but know you are in my heart. Love, Vicki
