Not sure what to say?

We were very sad to hear about the death of cousin David. Whenever we travel to Ringsted, we hear the stories again about Aunt Georgia and her son David. And across the street is "The Thomas House" still there next to Grandma Clara's old place. We have some genealogy info on the Petersen clan if anyone is interested. Blessings and prayers to the family. Chris and Kristine Arney (son of Ruth Petersen Arney, David's aunt)

Dear Judy: We were suprised to hear of David's passing in the Ringsted Dispatch. Although I have not seen David in many years , I have many fond memories of my sister Georgia and David. You are in our thoughts and prayers as your family comes together in rememberance of David. Sincerely, Ruth Arney (Petersen) and daughter Leslie Lowery

Dear Amanda and Judy, I was so sad to learn of David's death. Although I hadn't seen him for awhile, we talked on the phone quite often usually because I was asking for advice. I really respected his opinion. He helped me a good deal.
Amanda, your Father was very proud of you. He never failed to tell me about your accomplishments beginning with your early school days in NYC on through your higher education and foreign travels. I will miss him and I'll say a prayer for him and for you two...

Dear Amanda and Judy,
We are so saddened by David's death and, although we had not seen him since Amanda and Caley's Spence graduation, we know he was a deeply devoted father and husband and a wonderful man. Our hearts are with you. With love,
Elizabeth Cecil and David Wagner (Caley's mother and stepfather)
