Dear uncle Ken and Family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I shall keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time.
I have very fond memories of both aunt Barbara and uncle Ken. Both of you were so kind to my brother, Norman and I. We loved coming to visit you both.
I pray for sweet memories and comfort for each of you in the coming days ahead.

I am sorry for your loss. We don't know one another unless someone in the family does genealogy, but we are related, Ms Barbara is my 2nd cousin once removed. My uncle sent me the obit to check if we were related because he remebered hearing the name Russell Tobery when he was growing up. My grandfather is Clifford Ullyses (aka Jim) Tobery 1898-1951. Again I am sorry for your loss, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
