Time cannot steal the treasures

To Sandy and your daughters
My prayers are with all of you at this time. I only know of your husband thru Tracy, as she was always talking about him, so from what I understand he was a very loving person. I am sorry I never got to meet him in person. He sounded like a wonderful man. Try to remember him as a wonderful loving father and husband. I know what you are going through at this time, as it has been a little over a year for me. You mostly remember the good times with the family and friends that you will have forever. Love you all.........Elaine

Dear Sandy, Tracy and Kristen,
Please accept our deepest sympathy at the passing of your dear husband and father. Words seem so inadequate to express our deep sadness at Tonys passing. He was such a vital, active and caring person, and he will be so sadly missed. He was always there to lend a hand, or give helpful advice about so many problems. He truly practiced the golden rule and we feel fortunate to have known Tony and to have had him for a neighbor.

Dear Sandy
It is indeed with a heavy heart that I write to you concerning Tony's death. There are no words...no matter how profound...that ease the sorrow of a separation so final. The comforting presence of friends and family bring to reality that your loss is also theirs. The memories that you share; the hours spent together; the laughter and even the tears; all help bridge the gap of emptiness.
Hold tight to the good memories that the gift of your life together brings.
I am reminded of a poem that I wrote years ago....hope it brings some comfort
I thought I'd lost my Friend....
But, I hadn't
When dawn's early sunbeams shown through my window pane,
I saw the brightness of his smile
He was there.
When I went outside, and the gentle breezes touched my face,
I felt his kiss as we embraced.
He was there.
I felt him go with me as I went about my day...his laughter, his caring, his gentle way of life
He was there.
As night time closed round about me....oh, yes,
He was there to hold my hand
He's been with me all along
He was there.
I thought I'd lost my friend....but, I hadn't.
with much love, Joyce

I am so deeply sadden at the lost of such a good man. My sympathy goes out to his wife Sandy and imediate family. I had worked with Tony at Now several years ago and got to know what kind of a man he truly was. Hard worker and good family man. I never herd of anyone having a bad or discouring word to say about Tony as he was liked by all. And even though I did not see Tony over the last coupple of years, I always considered him as my freind. May you rest in peace and god speed.
You will truly be missed...

Remembering the good time and looking at all the pictures offers little comfort without you. My heart is so broken but I know you want me to be strong and I'm doing my best. I love you so much...

To My Dearest Husband,
I will love you forever; you were the best husband any woman could ask for. You were my lover, my best friend and my confidante. We kept no secrets from each other. My heart is yours for all of eternity. Your Loving Wife, Sandy
