Lynne - You have my sympathy on the loss of both your parents.
Evelyn Morgan (Hamilton)

Dear Lynne,
This is a difficult time in both of our lives, but I know that with the Grace of God we will survive. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Mr. Kranz you will be missed. The window in box section won't be the same without seeing you. My condolences to the family.

Dear Lynne,
How bittersweet to talk to you after so many shared years (generations!) of Krantz and Karabin.

I feel privileged to have known your Dad (and sweet Mom)--just as were my parents (Libby and Ed), my Grandpa Karabin and-- of course, Great Uncle George who loved Andy as a son.

As an only child myself, I know how difficult losing parents are. Andy knew this, too. He was strong as he was kind and no matter how he acted or spoke in his last days, you will...

We lived down the block from the Krantz family in the early 1930s -- Andy, Ed, Roy, Kermit, Quentin, Dolly, Agnes, as I recall. What a family! I was just a little kid, always hungry, and they always had a place for me at their table. Andy was special, in so many ways. Time moved on, we moved away, but fond memories linger. Our deepest sympathies -- I only wish I could thank him and the rest of the Krantz family.

We are so very sorry for your loss. Darrell and Evelunn Copenhaver.

Dear Lynne, I never met your father but he sounds like he was a wonderful man. I'm sure you are very proud of his accomplishments and I know you will miss him. Treasure each and every happy memory you have of him and he will always live on in you. Love, Karen Hollebrands

My Dear, Dear Friend, I am so sorry for your loss but, at the same time am happy and relieved that his mind and body are restored, and he is with Our Lord! Know that he loves you and is reunited with your dear, sweet mother. You are always in my heart and in my prayers. Lucy
