Dear Verrill and Gayhart Family,
I'm sorry for your loss. I met Loa years ago when I was married to her brother Jimmy. She was a sweet wonderful woman. We fell out of touch a few years ago. I apologize for that. I have fond memories of her and her husband. I'll always cherish them. My condolences to all of you. You're in my heart and prayers.

Dear Joe, Joyce, and Ray, Larry and families, I want to express my sorrow in the passing of your Mom. I have known all of you for such a long time, almost my whole life, that it seems I am an extended part of your family even though we don't see each other very often. We have very happy memories of our childhood in East Boston. I have fond memories of your father and mother. A celebration of your Mom's life is a beautiful thing. Life does not end with death. Death is just the beginning of an eternal life. You are in my thoughts and prayers at this time.
