Grandpa, You were there when I needed you. You walked me down the isle at my wedding and I will always love you for that. Thank you for just being you and the many funny faces that you made. You will be missed, but I know that you are in heaven and will await for all of us to see you again soon. Debbie, Robin & Tori

Our deepest sympathy to Nancy and family of Alex. He will always be remembered as the mentor and leader for us during the halcyon days of our youth when the corner of Palmer and Vine was the center of out universe. The abandoned lumberyard, the railroad tracks and the Milwaukee River were our playground. St. Macus deveoloped and strengthened our religious beliefs and Lincoln High School our academics. When he was in the military, we corresponded regularly by "v mail". He shall be in our thoughts forever, as he is in yours. Jesus said "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted"> Mt 5:4. We are in Arizona, but our thoughts and prayers are with you. Vic & Darlene Manian

You will always be in our hearts Dad! You were a wonderful father!

miss you.
