Not sure what to say?

I'm glad I was able to see Uncle Dan and a bunch of cousins last spring. Our family didn't get out to Cleveland that much over the years, but Uncle Dan had a special spot in Mom's heart (I got a kick out of him calling Mom "Sis".) I loved hearing "Duke" stories, especially the ones about his motorcycle and when dating Aunt Helen. I got my first and only motorcycle ride from Uncle Dan! Do they have motorcycles in heaven? All my love and prayers to my cousins.

Diane and family.....
My condolences to you all. May you cherish the memories and fun times you had together. Thoughts and prayers.

Uncle Dan & Aunt Helen were the best. They loved each other and their children.
It was always a joy to be surrounded by their love during our visits.
I know my mom & dad loved being with them.
I know they are all together for eternity. Mom & Uncle Dan were always bonded by being the only Irish spouses in a Hungarian family.
God rest his soul.
He will be missed by all who knew him.

I am sorry to hear about the passing of Uncle Dan. I have such wonderful memories of being with all of you at your house and Grandma and Grandpa Kirner's. Your dad was one of a kind. He always had something funny to say and always gum for the kids. He will surely be missed. But we can take solace in the fact that he's with the love of his life, Aunt Helen - and my parents.

Please accept my sincere sympathy. Elssy Lawrence

Diane and Rita, our prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. Take comfort in knowing your Dad is in a beautiful place and will be watching over you from above.

Diane and Rita, I am truly sorry for your loss. May you find comfort knowing your mom and dad are together again. Love you!

Please accept my deepest sympathies.

My prayers go out to all of the Dowd family. I remember what a strong looking man he was and how much he loved your Mom...They are now holding hands in heaven.

Sincerely, Chris and Bob Riemer (Aurora Ohio)
