To My Aunt Verilyn, Cousins Dennis & Debbie,
I'm so sorry for the loss of your husband and father, after suffering a great loss recently I know how sad you feel at this moment. I really loved Uncle Haskel, he was always so funny, such a character, he always had a smile on his face and he was always so good to us all whenever we came to visit. Uncle Haskel had a life well lived, remember the very best times and that will help to get you through.
With Love,
Sherron Teal & Family

Mrs. White,
My husband and I are so sorry to hear of Mr. White's passing. We went on a cruise with the Pete Dunston group about 6 years ago and it was your anniversary. I remember him kissing you at the dinner table. Oh he was such a blast. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I just learned last week about Mr. White's serious illness and had anticipated coming to see him this weekend with Vera and Eugene. I am so sorry we didn't have the opportunity to do that. Please know my thoughts are with you and accept my heartfelt sympathy for your loss.
