Dear Mrs. Gillio, Joy and Al,
I was so saddened to read todays obituary. Some of my fondest teenage memories took place in your home playing cards (you know i used to let Mr. Gillio win!) And I don't think he ever forgot the goat prank. We all will miss him very much. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
love,
Robin Ailstock McElhaney

Dear Phyll and Family:
Driving to Oceans II on Fridays, one of us would invariably say, "I hope we get to see Phyll and Al this weekend." And that is the way we will always remember him, sitting around the pool with Gloria and Marie, reminiscing and solving world problems, a smiling friend who loved the beach!
An ancient Greek playwriter of tragedies seems to understand the fate of those left behind. He wrote:
"Even in our sleep,
pain which cannot forget
falls drop by drop upon the heart,
until in our own despair,
against our will, comes wisdom
through the awful grace of God."
- Aeschylus
Please accept our sincere condolences.
