Dear Bob and Family-

I, too, am sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. What a sad day for all that knew and loved your Mom. I reiterate what Russ said - I will always remember the great times we spent together on Moose Hill Road through High School and the way your Mom took us all in as one great happy family. Please know that my thoughts are with you all.

Dear Gallagher Family-

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I spent a lot of time at your place all throughout High School and Roseann always treated me as if I was one of her own. I always liked her sense of humor and how she always put the kids first in her life. My condolences to all of you during this difficult time.

Regards,
Russ Pettis
