Sometimes people just click! I really felt like a family member of "Chuck's" after spending time with them in the hospital. Helping their Dad and spouse make his final journey home was an honor and a privilege for me! I will never forget our experience together. Thank you for the trust and confidence you placed in me. Thoughts and prayers for you all....

Rose and family, My Deepest Sympathy on the passing of such a Good Man and Friend. I use to have so much fun with Bigi and Brother Norm Lander. I am so sorry that I can’t attend the visitation or funeral. I am out of state. I assure you of my prayers for all of you. May The Good Lord bring comfort to all of you in the days ahead. God Bless you!
