Dear Richard, Sheena and Laura,

We are so sorry for your loss. Uncle Fileno was such a sweet, honorable man, always ready with an offer of help, never complaining. I have many wonderful memories of him from over the years, and will always love and be grateful to him for his unending support during my Mom's illness. He put up a valiant fight against his own unimaginable disease this past year, an we are all in awe of his courage and dignity throughout. We are very relieved that his suffering has ended, and are sure that he is at peace now. We hope the three of you will take some comfort in the fact that you did everything possible - and beyond - for him, and that your help and love, in turn, gave him great comfort.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

With love,

Pam, Mark, Matt & Jessie

You were the young brave handsome soldier who came home from the war and made our family proud. He was a music lover, loved hearing his records. We shall miss you very much.
