My sincere sympathy for the loss of Mr. Szymczak. I have such fond memories of him, and while I am saddened by his loss, I am happy to have had the opportunity to know him. A wonderful man and grandfather to Holly. We shared the same birthday and I think of him each year on that day, and always will.

Sincerely,

Henry Lech

I am so sorry to hear about Eddie. I use to visit his mother,father,Sophie,Mary,Ziggie with my mother,Josephine Lech,growing up. As far as I can remember,they were my uncle,aunt,and cousins. The last time I saw Eddie was at my sisters funeral,Bleance Soron,in Arlington a few years back. I believe that he came in with Richard.
I do not have Ziggie's address to send a card. I would appreciate it if one could be provided.
I did go to church this morning and said the Chaplet to the Divine Mercy for Eddie.
Tell cousin Ziggie that I express my synpathy to all of you. What a beautiful family you are.

Mr. Szymczak,
Sir, I didn't know you, but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army 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.

grandpa, it's still very hard to believe your not here. i honestly thought you would live forever. i never pictured life without you--in your lifetime you accomplished so much--but the love you had for nannie and your family is the the most profounding. you lived a very long life, and i cry today for my own selfish reasons. i want you here on earth, but now you are an angel in heaven with nannie. may you rest in peace--always know i love you. i'll be seeing you in all the old familiar places...
