Lorie, Hal and family ...
My memory of your father, while I was growing up with you in the old neighborhood, was one of intelligence and kindness.
His passing is a loss for many.
Sincerely,
WmR

Lorie, So sorry to read about your loss. Please accept my sincere wishes of sympathy. My dad died in March of 1979 and not one day ever passes that I don't think of him fondly. My prayer are with you and your family.
Kind regards,
Molly Govert-Nykiel
