Kenny and Family,
I know when I lost my dad a big piece of me went with him. I remmeber "now I am the one, the family leader". My peace came from knowing his spirit was free. I hope you have the same comfort.

Gary, You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I really believe he was one of a kind. As he always told me when I left work - O'River. Now I say it for him - O'River, Mr. Brown. Love, Cathy

Mr. B -
You will always be remembered as a strong, loving, funny, admirable man that will forever have a place in my heart. I will miss our Redskin conversations on who should be doing what. I will miss your jokes.
Love you, Heather

Gary, Kenny & Families -
Our thoughts are with you and your families.
Your Dad/Granddad was one of the most special men we've ever known. He was all around good in every way. We loved his humor and his caring personality.
Your parents/grandparents were what every couple should be.
We hope that each day ahead will bring a measure of comfort.
He will truly be missed.
With Our Deepest Sympathy,
The Haller Family (Heather, Joe, Amanda, Jennifer & Michael)
