Not sure what to say?

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

I will be thinking about you all today. I will also be thinking about all the happy memories I had spending time with Al. Always so positive, and that smile of his. I never saw a more loving husband and father and I probably never will.

Heartfelt condolences to Ellen and family. You are in our thoughts and prayers. -- Linda Uhl and family
