Not sure what to say?

I just read in the paper of the passing of Mr. Andre. My husband Ken and his brother Glenn worked with Andre for a long time at General Motors. They always called him by his last name. Andre came to Glenns funeral this past March and Ken passed away last September. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Your family is in my prayers.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. I am so saddened by the passing of Buzz.

Truly sorry to hear of the passing of Buzz, always had that bright smile and joy about. Remember working with him and Tim at lent fish frys in his trailer. God bless you Fred and bring peace to your family

I would like to give my condolences to Carol and her family. Buzz and Carol were friends of my parents, when my dad passed Buzz was there helping at the luncheon in any way he could. When my sister got married, he helped us get the hall from his local. He was always helping others. I have good memories with this family, he will be missed.

There are no words to express how much I will miss this wonderful man I called Uncle Buzz.

To the Andre family I am so sorry for your loss My thought are with you
