Belated expressions of my sympathy. Was trying to contact him about a visit to my brother's Sandy Springs house, when I discovered his death. He and your mother were special people, and the memories will remain. Please be in touch.

I was so sorry to hear of your Father's passing. It brought back many great memories from years past - trips to the cabin in the woods, the New York World's Fair, just hanging out with the family when we were all kids. Mr. Sapp was larger than life - talented, interesting, and fun to be around. As I know from the passing of my father earlier this year, those memories of the great man he was will sustain you and remain with you. My condolences to all of you, and prayers for comfort in the days ahead.

Dearest Sapp family, I am sorry to hear of your father's death. However I can picture him smiling his huge contageous smile at your mom right now and probably taking pictures all over heaven! They were both the best of the best! Love and sympathy to you all.

God bless your family. I am so saddened to hear about your father's passing. I will always think of your parents as my second set of parents. I had so much fun with them and your family. I can see your parents sitting in the choir loft singing their hearts out! Wonderful, treasured memories. Love to all, Mary Ann Fitzgerald Hull

Liz,

Sorry to hear about the passing of your father. I pray that God will comfort your family during this season of grief. Reflect on the memories that you have and allow them to bring comfort and joy.

The Credentialing Branch join with so many others in offering our deepest sympathy on his passing of your father. Although it is little consolation at this sad time, it should be of some satisfaction to know that in his passing you can celebrate the end of a very long and productive life.

The measure of a life well-lived is not in how much money one has or what possessions they have accumulated, but rather through the lives they touched and the sorrow they leave behind. If the outpouring of sympathy on his loss is any indication, and it most certainly is, you can proudly and confidently say that his indeed was a life well-lived.

May you find peace and comfort in knowing that his loss is felt by all who knew and loved him.

In Sympathy,

Angeline Bishop-Oshoko on behalf of the Credentialing Branch Staff
