Dear Family, Friends, and Neighbors,

We thank you for your kindnesses to our aging father -- known to us as Dad, Uncle Em, Grand Dad, and Great Grand Dad. He lived a long life, just shy of 100 years, not always an easy life. We remember Dad in a myriad of ways - for his insightful monologues at the kitchen table, for helping him plant hundreds of trees - maples, white pines, willows, and Chinese elms - at a time when few would be "green."

To All of Emerick's family and Patricia,

I had the privilege of meeting with Emerick and discussing many topics since I am an engineer by profession but a seeker of all knowledge and Emerick certainly had a great gift of mind.

He will be missed.
With sympathy,

Dear Liz and Debbie,

I am so sorry for your loss. I will also miss you're dad immensely. We shared many fond memories mostly him reminiscing about you (the family). And a bit of cynicism at times. I loved your dad dearly. Miss you Emerick, anxiously awaiting for you to visit me in spirit.

Love Louise

Dear Dad,
Your creative and wildly brilliant mind will be missed so much. Your contributions in the field of linguistics will some day be recognized. I know you had a difficult time telling us, but your daughters, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren all know how much you loved us. Love, Debbie

Hi Elizabeth and Debbie
I am sorry for your loss but what a long life he had. Reading it took me back to our town of Ashley Falls and Mt. Everett. I hope you are well.
Fondly
Marji (Johnson) West
