Pig and Sow, your Pop was the kind of father everyone should have. Humble, giving, nurturing, selfless, I could go on. I was privileged to know him a little bit and as difficult as these past two weeks have been for you, my prayer is that you will be comforted in knowing he is at peace and free from pain. I love you both and will be thinking of you today! Ken & Shelli (King Pig and the Mrs.)

I will miss you Elmer. I did not spend enough time getting to know you. From the few opportunities I had, I felt so lucky to have met you. You loved your family and you were so kind to everyone. This world was a much better place with you in it. Thank you always for the kind words you bestowed on me and my family. I hope you are at peace. Love, Barbara Thacher
