Maria, Helen, Theresa and Rosemary~ Words cannot describe the aching my heart is feeling hearing about your Father's death. Saying I'm sorry cannot even begin to console you. After everything else your family has had to endure, its so heartbreaking to hear this news. I have nothing but fond memories of your father. He was a wonderful man who was always there to lend a helping hand. I am now even more happy that I had the chance to see him last year and reminisce as well as catch up on our lives. If there is anything I can do for any of you, please do not hesitate. May his smile and memories live forever in your hearts.
