We are very sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. The Sage Family (Fairport)

My grandfather was an amazing man. No man has ever been able to measure up to him in my life. He always wanted the best for me and all his family. If I had any wish right now it would be to ride in the bucket of his Old John Deere Tractor with him driving.

Grandma, I love you and I am so sorry for your loss.

Donna, our thoughts and prayers are with you. It has been a long time since our good times at Grace and Truth Church, but we never forgot you and Roger. I sent e mails but never heard back and you had moved. Please know we still care. Carol Carberry and Mike Stoner
