Buddy,
You, Billy and Jimmy were like my big brothers. I thought of you the other day and called your son, Jim's house; only to find out that you had gone to be with Eileen and my Tillie. You and your brothers were so special to me, Eleanor, Irene, Jimmy amd Aunie Mamie. God bless you, Love the family brat.

Grampsy will be missed more than he knew. I enjoyed countless summers at his home with him & Grandma when I was young. Those memories I hold on to dearly & feel lucky that I got that special time with both my Grandparents. I wish I had more time to spend with him & for him to see his Great-granchildren one last time. I have such a respect for Grampsy & I hope he is finally at peace and happy to see Grandma. Lots of love ~Jennifer(Watson)Kelly

I love Papa. We will miss him but I am happy that he is not in pain anymore and is in heaven playing golf with his friends he has'nt seen in a while and getting to be with Mumum. :]
I remember when I had to do a report in 5th grade about a hero and I wrote about papa. I interviewed him and he told me about his whole entire life and about stories from when he was in the war. I learned alot from that and I spent alot of quality time with him.
And this year I did a family tree in gifted and I called papa alot to ask him about stuff for it. I got to talk to him alot and without that project I probably would'nt have talked to him that much before he died.
I also remember when he came to Florida and he slept in my room and I stayed in Katie's with her. Whenever she would not stop talking to me, I would go into Papa's room and he would be watching tv. I would tell him the story and he would let me sleep on the bed and he would sleep on the big yellow chair in there.
I used to read to Papa every night and from reading to him every night, I got my daily 30 minute reading done and we must have read about 20 books.

I am thankful for papa and everything he has done and this year on the FCAT , i'm going to write about him.

To Al, Steve, Margie, Tommy, Jimmy and Helen. You all are a tribute to the wonderful man your Dad was.He always will be my favorite uncle. His smile would light up the room and there is a piece of him (and your Mom )in each of you.
He will be greatly missed, but happy in Heaven with your Mother he loved and missed so much.

Dear Watson family.
Just wanted to express my deepest sympathies on the loss of Al. He was a warm, gregarious and kind man whenever he visited his good golfing buddy Victor at the pharmacy. He also came in with a smile, a joke or a sweet story to share. Al was a truly a gentleman and a gentle man. May God raise him up on the wings of eagles.
My best to one and all.

My deepest sympathy goes out to the entire Watson family.
To Margie: to lose your husband(my friend Greg) and your dad in such a short period of time just isn't right. Stay strong........my prayers are with you and your family.

Mr. Watson,
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.

Uncle Al and Aunt Eileen were the greatest. Al will be missed very much. Will always remember the pool parties and the "center slice of cake". Our condolences. Nancy (Carney) Haugh and Family.
