Aunt Eve, Michael, Bobby, & Kathy:
My heartfelt sympathy goes out to each of you in the loss of your husband and father. I will always remember the times we spent together. The last time I saw him he was smiling and changing channels on the tv while visiting in St. Marys and told me to hang tough and that he loved me before I left that day. Please know that you all are not alone at this time and that the Lord above will be with you through all the tears and loneliness and he will give you the strength you need for each day ahead. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dearest Aunt Eve, Cousins Michael, Bobby & Kathy:
I was heartbroken to hear of your loss. Uncle Ted had a heart as big as his smile and as warm as his hugs. I have so many happy memories of all of you and time spent together in New Jersey and in St. Marys. Whenever I spent time around Uncle Ted, I always felt his love for his family...all of us. He will be missed. I'm sure that Bubba will be waiting at the Gates to welcome him Home.

I love all of you ! ! ! !
