I wish to express my sincere sympathy to the family during your time of sorrow. Please keep in mind the comfort that God offers when we face any kind of distress. Also, he is a refuge and strength for us, a help that is readily to be found during difficult times (Psalm 46:1). As you endure the days ahead, may God give you peace and the strength you need to endure.

A gentle and loving soul has passed. I am so glad you were able to enjoy the turkey and trimmings last year - never saw anyone who enjoyed gravy the way you did! You will be missed by all of your four-legged wildlife neighbors out back, but not nearly as much as your family who were lucky to have you in their lives so long.

To the family of Lewis (Bud) Lantz,
Bud and I grew up literally as neighbotrs from toddler age to high school age. His family were a few doors from us, they moved to another part of town, about a year later, we moved to the same area and on my first day in a new school, there was my friend, Bud. What joy! We continued in the same achools until gradualtion from high school. I shall miss knowing that I would see him at reunions and luncheons. His smile of welcome was so appreciated especially as we have all aged.
My sadness of the loss of a long time friend is great. Fran DeLauder Shore
