Not sure what to say?

We are saddened to hear about the passing of your dear father. May special memories help you through this difficult time for your family.

I went to school with Bob at Holy Name. We “hung” together in 7th and 8th grade.
Spent lots of time in Penn Treaty and Pennypack parks. He, Maryanne, his girlfriend at the time, Jimmy Bohar and I were a happy four until we went our separate ways to high school. So sorry for your loss.

Mrs. Ellis, Ronnie and entire family: My thoughts, love and prayers are with all of you during this very difficult time.
