My condolences to all of you. "Aunt Mary and Uncle Paul" were my neighbors on Bellflower Street for many years, I therefore got to know all the family through Peggy and Maribeth too. May only sweet memories remain with you forever. Lillian'

Mr. Keeley,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army Air Forces during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Dear Aunt Della, Paul, Michael, Paulette, Judy & granchildren ... I am so sorry to hear the news about Uncle Pat. He was a favorite of mine and I'm sure of many other nieces and nephews. He always showed so much love and kindness to everyone! He will be missed terribly. My love, thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
