Hi Doug, Dennis, Bobby, Richard & Donald:

I was very sorry to hear about the passing of your Dad. I was your neighbor on Vane Street. My Mom, Kay Julius, always admired your Mom and Dad and your whole family!! She always said what true love your Dad had for your Mom. If ever there was true love, it was between them. He was a champion for sure. I share in your loss, and I have so many happy memories of you and your family. As you carry on with your lives, cherish those memories as I do. I am sorry I could not be with you all at this very sad time. God bless you all, and may God give you strength and confidence to get through this difficult time.

To all the Haywards,
We were so sorry to hear of your dads passing. He was such a great guy and neighbor. He and your mom made us feel so welcomed when we moved into the neighborhood. I think of them every time I look over at 6 Vane Street, as it will always be Percy & Evelyns place to me.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Love,
Marilyn & Brian

Doug, Denny, Bobby, Richard, & Donald I know saying goodbye is hard, but knowing your Mom & Dad are together once agian, I know will bring you all some peace and comfort.
Uncle Percy, you'll surely be missed. I will hold my memories of days spent with you and Auntie Everlyn in a specail place in my heart. I know too that when that special lady of yours with the ocean blue eyes smiled when she saw you and now you're walking...no...knowing Auntie Evelyn you're both running and skipping arm & arm together once again. I will always remember and love the both you.

Love,

Hi Doug, Dennis, Bobby,
Richard, and Donny:

So sad to learn of your dad's passing. He was such a special man....and I have such fond memories of him. He was always so devoted to your mother....and they were always such "good friends" to each other. I know how much he missed her when God called her home. It is comforting to know that they are together again. And don't you know that he is surrounded by all those "ladies" of the neighborhood...probably already chewing his ears off!

My deepest sympathies to all of you. May you bask in the memories you have of him and allow them to comfort you as you move forward in life without him. Know that he is home now...by your mother's side.

Love,

Janet
