Not sure what to say?

Ginny, there is not a day that goes by that we do not think of Lou and all the crew sent up to CT to work at Bristol. What a wonderful group of people. Lou was one of the best! A happy guy, a happy face and a willingness to do for others. He is truly missed...We just lost Joe Provenzano. Another one of the good guys. He now joins Lou and Joe Ackley. Maybe they are fishing....Bless you Ginny. Still in Southbury.

Dear Family:

Please accept our deepest condolences for your very untimely loss. We know that your Dad's family provided him the very best of support during this very difficult period for all of you. We knew your Dad to be a loving and devoted man...with always a smile on his face.

Very sincerely,

Jack and Laura Halsor

Dear Stacey, Chris and Alex, I am so sorry to hear about the passing or your terrific Dad! He was someone who always had a smile on his face and he was such a good father to you. I empathize with your grief in losing a father. My Dad, Charlie (I think you remember him) was my hero and I miss him so so much. My Mom, Martha, passed away, like your Dad, too young; she was only 65. May God be with you during this difficult transition for you. My prayers are with your Dad and you! He is someone...

Al and family, we are so sad to hear about the loss of your Dad. Our thoughts are with your family during this time of sadness.

Dear Stacey,Chris and Alex,my deepest sympathy to all of you.Your dad was a very special person. I don't think I've ever known a dad that was prouder of and loved his children more than he did. May his memory and God's love carry you through this time of loss.
Blessings,Al Trowbridge
