Not sure what to say?

Art and Ruth were our first "best" neighbors when we moved to Russell Ave. When they moved, we were sad, but we kept in touch. Art was such a gentleman and would leave containers of his awesome cherry tomatoes at my door for when I came home from work- a pleasant surprise every time! We miss the beautiful yard and garden and mostly we miss them both being there. It's consoling to know that they are together again and in complete peace and happiness- which they both deserve! I will always...

Dear Donna,
We loved Uncle Art beyond words. He lived life to the fullest and his wonderful laugh still rings in my ears. Our last conversation was about Aunt Ruth, he missed her deeply and is with her now again.
Our deepest sympathies are with you at this very sad time.
Sincerely,

Dear Donna,
Our sympathy and prayers are with you at the loss of your father. Art was such a friendly, fun-loving person with a great smile.
Chuck remembers the good times he had bowling at Seven Hills Lanes and in the Lutheran Tournament. Also enjoyed his company at the Men's Breakfasts.
Sorry we can't be with you at this time. May God be with you!

Art loved golf. For years, he scheduled our golf starting times at various local courses. Our Wednesday golf group will miss him and all of those straight shots that seemed so easy for him.

Dear Donna,
I was so shocked to hear of Art's death. I haven't seen him since Ruth died but liked him very much. He was such a kind and gentle man. I enjoyed my IGA trips with Ruth and him and our get togethers. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Irene Shaker

Dear Donna: We have fond memories of your father; his smile and wit, his hard work for the Hunger Center and Parma Lutheran Church, his care and devotion to your mother, and the many outings and New Year Eve dinners and card playing that we shared with him.
You can be comforted that he no longer is in pain and memories of him will stay with you forever.

Donna, We loved living next to your parents on Russell. With them there was never a quiet moment. Our kids grew up and respected them and loved them as grandparents. Your Dad was always good for teasing us and I am sure he put up with a lot living next to 2 children.
We visited with him last year and brought him some Split Pea soup. We knew how much he liked it.
I know he loved GOD and he is with both him and your Mom now. As I am typing this I can see his smile and hear his...

Mr. Priebe was my neighbor on Russell Ave. for the longest time while I was growing up. He and Mrs. Priebe were the best neighbors a kid could ever ask for. They took me in when I locked myself out of the house (which happened more than once). I will never forget all that they did for my family and I. My deepest sympathies are with your family.
