Not sure what to say?

Dear Janet,
Many years ago, Chuck had asked that I hurry to get to The Chicago Bar Association meetings so that he would not be the only one to order a beer! I am as flattered today as I was then when he said it with his usual great smile.

My wife Fran and I wish to offer condolences to John and Richard and their families at the death of Chuck, whom I remember well when he attended St. Cajetan's. He was always nice to younger folks like me when I was growing up in Blue Island.

He'd come in often with his lovely wife Janet, and sometimes by himself. I always tried to remember to play "Things Ain't What They Used To Be", the Duke...

Greg:
Our family's thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. God bless you. Your strong faith and the love of family and friends will be a comfort.
