Dear Mrs. Cotton, Mary Ellen and all his loved ones.
I am so very sorry to hear about your loss.
Mr. Cotton was always great fun and a joy to kid around with. He was a good man to the bone.
My wife Gabriela and myself now have 10 children of our own and I often reflect on families like yours and others in my childhood who were an inspiration to me.
Best wishes from our family to yours and may God grant you the peace which passes all understanding during this difficult time.

Kevin: I hear your father's laugh today and see the twinkle in his "Irish eyes." He was a funny, warm and witty man - the same words I would use to describe you.

Kevin, Kris, Lucille and family. Our thoughts have been with you this past week. Hank was always a welcome smile and full of stories/jokes on our trips to SA. Our kids loved seeing him and thought he was just the nicest grandpa ever. He will be greatly missed, but a wonderful person to have known. Take Care

Our Uncle Bud was like a breath of fresh air everytime he breezed back into the Boston area. He made the effort through the years to come and see us all. He came to our weddings and our funerals. Even though he lived in Texas, when he came back, every time it was like he had never left. He was fun and smart and had great wisdom. He really cared. We enjoyed our animated discussions about politics and life in general. He was our "Uncle Bud" and we'll miss him and we'll never forget him. He was what family is all about.
Rest in Peace, Uncle Bud. We love you. Love, Linda and Bob and the rest of the Boston clan.

Dear Lucille and family,
Please accept out sympathy at Hank's passing. It's been so many years since we last saw your station wagon pull away as you moved from Littleton to Texas, but you've remained in our thoughts and memories.
Your long-time friends,
Peter and Joyce Cassinari

You were and always will be the GREATEST Grandpa ever! You always put us first before yourself, kept all of us on our feet and always made us smile. You were the closest person to a father I ever had, and I will miss you Grandpa. You will NEVER be forgotten. I Love you. Love, Krystle

I was so sad to hear about Hank. I know this is a difficult time and there really are no right words but it does make me smile to think of Dad and Hank laughing together again in Heaven!
