Dad, Can't believe how many years have gone by since we lost you and Mom. The time has changed so much in our lives. Grandchildren and Great grandchildren all over the family. Your legacy lives on in a very big way. I know that Tom and Ronnie are both with you resting comfortably with the lord. The family misses you all so much. Rest Easy. We will all be together again. Love Rich

Mom & Dad,
So how do talk to angels? Pray I guess. Well we are starting November 1St 2020 tomorrow what a mess our planet is right now.
Mom & Dad you guys should have welcomed James home by now. James left us for his place in heaven to be with peace and god. James was sick for a long time and was not going to get better.
Christine and Mariah have suffered for a long time hoping James would find medical help and relief. The help never came. The doctors failed James. He never recovered from his surgery in January. James never made it home he passed in a hospice facility on Sept. 25th 2020. I will never forget him. He was a gentle giant. James was good to my daughter Christine when he was healthy and a good dad to Mariah (20). Mariah really never knew her dad to be healthy. At 54 James left us all to early he will be missed dearly. So take care of him in his new home in heaven.
Help us get through this pandemic and help our country heal.
Presidential election in 3 days ask the big guy to get the right man elected the guy who will do the right thing by the people.
Love and miss you both and James too.

Hey Dad, well we are fighting a virus down here we need some help from heaven. See if you can talk to the boss up there, tell him the world is out of sorts right now and in some ways we probably brought this on our selves with all the political cockroaches fighting and the unrest in the world. We need to come together as a country and bring peace back in our lives with lots of prayer. It must be a global fix. I think the big boss is not happy with all us down here. Just maybe we all need to wake up and put our the faith in God, country and family let's pray that he will give us another chance.
Miss you and Mom all the time.
Love Rich

We all miss you and Mom very much and can only hold you in our hearts.

Hey Mom and Pop, All is well here in Wading River, as far as I know the others are doing fine.
Just letting you know I went with Mike today for the wreath ceremony for Pearl harbor, he is 86 and still taking charge. Amazing!
Over to Foxwoods casino, didn't play just lunch and walked around, after my Vegas trip didn't have the interest in putting any money down the slot hole.
Dad, just to let you know, we put a grave blanket on your Mom's grave, Donna and I and mike took a trip to Queens to get it done. Uncle John and Uncle Fred requested I take care of it. Second year now. Happy to do it.
OK my day is done, off to bed. Miss and love you both. Rich

Hello Mom/Dad..Well it is becoming a very snowy winter. We have had plenty of the stuff and it is getting old quick. More coming tomorrow, which will put us close to a record. Anyway, update on things going on. Lil Rich, who is not so little anymore, is in The Air Guard, he is down at Lackland Air Force Base, He is in The PJ (para rescue) program. He needs a little help from all you Angels up in heaven. Grandma Peg too, He has about 5 weeks left and it is grueling hard for him, but he is hanging in there. Just give him a little helping hand from time to time, when he looks like he may be faltering give him a little push from heaven. Love you and miss all of you.

Nothing happy about it, except that I miss you guys tremendously. Love and may god keep you in his hands. Love you both. Rich

Mom & Dad. Wow! I made it through the night, didn't think It would happen. I finally went to Melissa and Brian's, your old home. I know, it took me sometime to get passed this.I have to say I was very glad I made it.Brian and Melissa made some changes and it wasn't the way I remember it. Furniture and pictures and just the overall setting was different, but I will say when we all got together it seemed like you both were still there.The laughter in the house just like Mom never left.Dad I could still see you walking down the hall and coming into the kitchen making sure everything was ok.Yeah It's been awhile now, but it is all good.Terry and the kids are going to be all ok, you guys take care of Billy.Love you and miss you Rich
Christine Wittschack
August 23, 2010
Hi Grandma and Grandpa, Today we have a service to remember Uncle Billy. I take comfort in the fact that he is no longer suffering. He was sick for such a long time. We will all stay close down here and you all continue to watch over us...like I know you do because I feel it.....I always know when you are by my side and it is a great comfort to me. Love and Miss you always, Christine

Well Mom and Dad, another member of the family is on the way to be with you. Billy was sick for awhile now and he couldn't keep the fight up any longer. Theresa has done all she can to help him through this difficult time.When Bill went into the hospital he was very sick and The Doctors did what they could to help him, but it was just to much for Bill to fight back from.We are all going to help Theresa and Melissa, and Rich and their families get through this tough time.We think of you alot and miss both of you very much. Dad You have to believe me when I say, I do things around the house and say things. I swear it's you working and talking through me.Mom I have your sense of humor everyday.Love you guys and take care of Billy.Love You. Rich
Christine Wittschack

Hey Mom & Dad.Played some paddle ball today, it was cold and the wind made it seem that much colder here on earth, but it was a good morning to get up and out.I play every Sunday morning with a group of guys mixed ages from 30-80 yes I said 80.Let me tell you they play extremely well. They play smart and they have the killer shots.So needless to say I'm getting my almost 62 year old butt handed to me, but I'm getting faster and smarter every week. Can't wait for this cold to end. I miss the times we spent together and I miss the laughter and the card games we used to play.Love you from my heart. Rich

Hi Buddy. Sorry this is so late getting on-line. This family has had so many tremendous burdens to carry these past 4 1/2 years...we have lost so many family members...Freddy, Jr., Aunt Francie, Aunt Lois, Uncle Ralph, Katie, you and now Bobby. It has been very hard for your brothers Johnny and Freddy. They both carry very heavy hearts for all of you. God has helped us carry these heavy crosses and has brought us much closer together. You are all having a celebration of family with my family. My dad always said "Who has more fun than Snyders?...more Snyders!" That goes for the Von Voigts as well. Thank you all for the wonderful legacies you have left us. Now celebrate Katie's birthday for us. Happy Birthday, Katie!!!!
Love, Johnny & Helen Von Voigt

Hi Grandpa, It's me again. Mariah and I visited you and Grandma yesterday, but you know that. It was a beautiful day!!! Mariah was so excited to leave flowers. She is such a good little girl. You would be so proud of her. I know you are with us. I feel it all the time. I think of you all the time. I know Grandma is with us too. I take comfort in knowing that you guys are there to help us through the tough times. Now Uncle Bobby is with you. May you all embrace each other there as we embrace each of you here. I will never stop loving you and I (we) will never stop missing you!!! Thanks for all you have taught us, it has truly made us a strong and loving family. We will continue to be here for each other when any of us need help or support. Because that's what we do!!! Missing you so so much!!!

WELL I DON'T! BUT WHAT I DO KNOW IS SOMETHING DROVE US ALL TO BE A GOOD SOLID FAMILY AND WE LOVED AND RESPECTED OUR PARENTS AND WE LOVE OUR CHILDREN AND HURT WHEN THEY HURT..NOW THAT IS GOOD AND WE BELIEVE THAT'S WHAT GOD IS...TAKING CARE OF FAMILY AND RESPECTING ALL THE PEOPLE WE COME IN CONTACT WITH..DOING THE RIGHT THING IS WHAT I BELIEVE GOD IS...GOD IS ABOUT DEVELOPING PATIENTS AND CARING FOR THOSE WHO NEED HELP...OUR FAMILY HAS ENDURED A TREMENDOUS HARDSHIP IN THE LAST YEAR AND WE HAVE STUCK TOGETHER LIKE GLUE.

But I take comfort in knowing that you and mom are together again, the the family values you left behind are so strong. You should be so proud of us, we all stay in touch and love talking to eachother. Thats an important part of the lessons of life you taught us. Always be a family and stay close. Thats something that will never ever change. I miss our conversations and your precious smile. Always in my heart and soul pop, Love ya Kathy

Grandpa, Thanksgiving came and went and we missed you so much. It is hard for me to believe you are not here, but yet I take comfort in knowing that you are here with us. I have you in my heart and think about you all the time. Mariah talks about you and Grandma all the time. She also misses you both so much. It's hard for the little ones to understand, and yet they know and understand much more than we think they do. Christmas is around the corner and it just won't be the same, but Dad is right, you both would want us to go on the best we can. We will never forget you because you both have taught us so much. Family and Tradition, that's what I keep with me. If it wasn't for the closeness of our family, I really don't know where we would be. Love and miss you terribly!!!
