My heart grows bigger as the years pass and I see reflections of you and Mom throughout our entire family. Love never dies. I see signs of you both everywhere, guiding me to be better and to give what I can, when I can. Your example is everlasting. But it still is a little lonely without you here. We miss you....

Dad you are missed. I can“t count the times that your sense of humor, laughter and joy emanates from your children and grandchildren always providing a lift and a smile. Love you dad.

Oh Dad - how can it be ten years already? You are so missed. There's a little less laughter in this life without you. Wishing we had more time to share our family with you but I see you in my children's lop sided grins and their love of a good joke. Love you Dad.

How is it already 7 years? Time is flying by and we miss you so much. Wishing you could be here to see your Grandchildren grow up. Wishing you were here so I could talk with you and ask your advice. Missing your hugs and smiles and your contagious laugh...

We had to laugh at Thanksgiving again at your three legged turkey joke...I picture you at the kitchen counter carving the turkey and I smile. Thank you for all those corny jokes that still give us the giggles.

For the Gengler Family

So sorry to have just now learned of your Father's passing two years ago. I have fond memories of your Dad through my dear friendship with Buddy. Thinking of you all and what a wonderful family you will continue to be through the lasting memories of cherished Father.

DEAR MAUREEN,
Gabe and I were classmates at St.johns Prep. Gabe and I spent a number of weekends in Valley Stream in our Jr. and Sr. years when I came out from Brooklyn on the train. We were quite close at that time and he taught me many things. I moved on to St. Peters College and graduate school in New Hampshire and eventually to Calif. Now retired in VT. PO BOX 323 Dorset Vt. 05251
After 55 years, I recognize Gabe's joy, compassion and friendship in his picture. I have thought of him often over the years.

Dad - I miss you more than words can ever describe. It feels like yesterday that we said goodbye.
I will never forget how you supported me when I needed it, how you provided tough love when I needed it and how you were always there in my times of need. I know you are smiling down on us because every day I smile at what we would have laughed at together. I love you, Dad. Please watch over our soldiers and provide comfort to those who need it.
You are missed by all, loved by all, and remembered by all for your heart and humor.
- Love, your son, Bud
