Foisy Family,
I am very sorry to hear about Paul's passing.
My heart goes out to you while you deal with this profound loss. At the same time I cannot help but remember some of the great times I spent with your whole family, especially the Christmas Eve parties at Paulette's. You all have so many more memories that I hope will sustain you now & always.

Jen,
I am so sorry to hear about your dad. It doesn't seem longago when I met him at your house when you and John went to one of the Johnston High School proms. I knew then, that both your mom and dad were devoted to you, and rightly so. The next few months/year will be difficult. As you know I lost both my parents this year and was so happy to see you again when you came to pay your respects. Seeing family and friends and finding comfort in their support is what will get you through this. Always remember, your dad will "ALWAYS" be there to watch over you. You may not see him but you will always feel his presence- REmember all the good times but especially the joy you brought to him by being such a special daughter- hope to see you at visiting hours. If ever you need to talk, please call me. I know exactly how difficult this will be but I also know you will do o.k. because that's what your dad would want.
