Not sure what to say?

Irene and Barbara, where do I begin? So sorry to hear of Joe's passing. There are so many memories swarming in my head right now, I don't know where to begin. I guess pouring myself a scotch would be a good place to start. He was such a part of my life growing up. Always the tease, but always there with a smile when you needed one. We have to get together soon! Much love and sadness, Sambo

So sorry for the loss of your father, Barbara. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

My condolences to you and your family Irene. I will always remember Colonial and the good times we have shared there, a very long time ago! I often think of those days, and all that have left us to soon. May he rest in peace. I'm sorry for your loss.
