To the Cleary Family-
We, the Melvin family, wish to offer our sincere condolences to each of you. We lost our dad in August and so we know how deeply you are grieving.
I'm Mary Ann (now Harrison), and I used to babysit for you guys back in the '60's. If it hadn't been for Mr & Mrs Cleary going out so often, I would have been a very impoverished teenager. The Clearys were always my favorite customers; the kids were sweethearts and made my job an easy one. I remember us all watching Mannix and The Mod Squad at your house, whilst enjoying the finest snacks in all of Clintonville. Mmmm. Thanks for those memories, Mr & Mrs Cleary! Well, I know this Christmas will feel bleak and empty without your dad & husband, but I know that each of you will always keep him in your hearts, and he has a special place in mine, too.
