Not sure what to say?

Aunt Marion and family, I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of Uncle Fred. I have such wonderful memories of your visits to San Diego.You were such a classy couple. As a young child I will always remember my lovely and beautiful Aunt Marion married to a real cowboy. He had such a wonderful sense of humor and he would tease my mom and could always make her blush a little.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and all of Fred's girls.

Our sympathies to Aunt Marion, Peggy, Carolyn, Wendy and Betty Jo and your families. My thoughts of our visits to your house as kids brings a smile to my face and warmth to my heart. Uncle Fred was one of kind.

We have so many great memories of the whole Whitehead family that go back more than 40 years. Whether it was a dinner at Tim and Carolyn's or a trip to Donner Lake, Fred was always laughing or joking with each one of us. He always had that sparkle in his eye and you could tell he was thinking about the next funny story.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you: Marion, Peggy, Carolyn,Wendy, BettyJo and your families. To Gina, Anna and Dona, we know how much you loved your...

I am truely sorry for your loss. Dorothy Shaplin - Sweden

We really enjoyed all our conversations with Fred and my years of working with Marian.

I am so saddened to hear that the one and only true cowboy, Mr. Whitehead has passed. Although I don't remember our first meeting, I was introduced to Mr. and Mrs. Whitehead in 1965 when I was less than a year old. All of my early childhood memories are filled with the man that was truly larger than life, and Mrs. Whitehead, the lady that was so beautiful and full of grace,; the horse "Reno" that would try to bite me as I inched my way between the coral and chicken coop, then ran like the...
