I am so sorry to hear of your loss. As you know, I lost my father when I was 12. I can only imagine what you are going through. I am sorry I could not make the visitation or funeral last weekend.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
Sincerely,
Barb Stahl

To Quin, Jan, Kelsey, Kiley and Mike and Bob and Rita and Kate and families, What can you say to someone who loses their father? I'm not sure what if anything can ease the sorrow and grief, except that from all of the wonderful stories heard in the past week, it sure seemed like he lived the good life. A well-respected member of his community, his church,.....and his neighborhood, The Riverside Rats! We also found out that he was a living legend from his high school athletic days.
But what most came out was that he was a man of intelligence, with great humor, a loving husband to your mother, and a doting father and grandfather. We hope that your sadness is tempered by all of the great memories and stories -- there sure seemed to be a LOT of those! --you have of him.
Our condolances to you and your family.

To Rita and The Ribordy Family,
The loss of my parents everyday bring me peace and sadness. I miss them greatly on one hand but know they are with me every step I take. I don't have to search too deep to feel the love and peace the Lord left me with.
May your memories, laughter, and family bring you closer to the Lord in every way and may peace fill your hearts.

Dear Rita, Bob and the Ribordy family,
My deepest sympathy. You and your family will all be in my prayers. Rita and Bob, we will always remember a beautiful evening and dinner a few years ago during the Christmas season with your dad at the Country Club. He was truly a wonderful man.
