My deepest sympathy to your family. I remember Mr.& Mrs Seeburg from their stay at Summit Place of Beaufort. They brought an air of elegance to our facility. I enjoyed what little time I had to talk with them. You are all in my prayers.

Please accept our deepest sympathy. Noel was such an exceptional man and a wonderful friend. We enjoyed Noel and Alice, and hearing about their memorable life together. We were truly blessed to have had them in our lives.

Although I never met Noel Seeburg Jr., he was a second cousin to me and my two sisters. I did know his grandfather, inventor and Chicago entrepreneur Justus Percival Seeburg, who was the brother of my grandmother, Olga Seeburg Grell. The Seeburg name became known worldwide on juke boxes, for which my great uncle developed the essential coin-operating mechanism. May I express my sympathy to Noel's children at the loss of an exemplary member of our extended family. Stephen Anderson, Chicago
