Not sure what to say?

I cannot believe it has been this long since my father died. I think of him so often and wonder what he would think of the situation our Country is in. He was such a optimist.

Dear Peter and your Siblings, family and friends -

Your Dad was always cracking jokes, a light hearted fellow and light for sure wearing a boy's suit size. You are a very lucky family to have been parented with two loving folk married for 65 years. Wow. Prayers to you and your twinkling Dad in the heavens.

Mr Bill Sanford was one of the nicest persons on earth. He was a great soul and for me more than a boss. He stood by his principles and was one of the most honest persons anyone could find. My fondest memory of him is his dancing and singing Frank Sinatra songs and would often sing "Fly me to the moon".
Our heartfelt condolences to the Sanford Family and we hope you find comfort knowing that Mr Bill is now a star.

A life well lived. Condolences to the entire Sanford family.

A lovely tribute to a true "gentleman."
