Not sure what to say?

It’s now 12 years since you passed. Mom, Dad and you are all together and that gives us comfort. Still miss you but life does go on You probably know I married my High School sweetheart and we both wish you could have been here for that as you have always been at my side. Miss you guys terrible and not a day goes by you are not in my thoughts. Hope you guys are happy as now you have cousin Kenny Love you

Now it coming to 11 years and things just dont get easier. You were so important to me and our relationship so special that there are times that I just talk to you and want you back here on earth. I know you are in a special place with Mom and Dad and think of you guys all the time Like I said at your funeral you were simply the Best.

It's been almost 6 years now since Gary's death. Life goes on but for Mom and me not a moment passes that Gary is not in our thoughts. Holidays are the hardest of times but somehow we just push through. Gary is in a better place but he is forever missed. Would just like to say Hi.

Dear Mrs. Delano and Donald,

I was very sorry to hear of Gary's death. Your family is forever part of happy memories of childhood on Huntley Place. My deepest sympathy to both of you.
Sincerely,
Margot DiCairano Durkin

Coralee, Don, and the very dear friends that embraced Gary in his final moments of life...may you take comfort in knowing he suffers no more. The memories you hold so dearly, will bring you peace and and the gift of time will bring you comfort. Nothing can replace the life of a loved one - but you can keep his memory alive by always sharing who this incredible man was. Don - I don't know what it is like to lose a brother, I can only imagine the loss of a best friend. I'm sorry for that loss....

To Mrs. Coralee Delano, Mr. Donald Delano, and friends and relatives of Gary,

Please accept my deepest sympathy. I pray that you will find comfort in knowing that Gary has found peace and eternal happiness in heaven.

He was a treasured childhood friend to me, and I will always think fondly of him and of our happy years together on Huntley Place.

Sincerely,
Jerry DiCairano
