Not sure what to say?

Doug and Family, our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. We read your Dad's story and wish we had know him, Ron Dyer and Nancy Ponzetti-Dyer

Dear Helen, Halbert, Naoni and Douglas,
Dad, sharon and I were very sadened with the passing of Hal. We used to have some good times when we were young. Dad often mentions how he and Hal used to celebrate their birthdays togather. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Hal,
Both of your parents were so dear to me all those years ago. I remember your Dad vividly. I loved his smile. My mother called me tonight to tell me about his death. I am going to be in Gardiner visiting her for most of the coming week. I can't tell if the cemetery service is a public service, but will call the funeral home and check tomorrow.

My best to you and your family at this sad time,
Lois (now Annie) Dellert Raskin

Uncle Hal will be missed by all who knew him. His quick wit, friendly demeanor, and pleasant smile gave assurance that you would enjoy your time with him. He was a great sportsman, who taught me an appreciation for our natural environment, with fishing and hunting trips in Northern Maine. We always had fun times at his cottages at Portage Lake and later on Taylor Pond. The Fowler family sends its condolences to Aunt Helen, Halbert, Naomi, Douglas and the entire Stevens family.

Doug and Jeri - I am so sad at this news. I only knew Hal a short time, but fell in love with him at the first 'hello'. He was a joy to be with and I learned many things from him. I so admired his pure love and devotion for Helen. I am a better person for knowing him and there is a place in my heart just for Hal.
God Bless Helen, you, and the whole family. Please let me know if there is any way I can help.
Love,
Bambi

I've no doubt Wendell & Doris (my Nana & Papa) are happy to be reunited with Hal...but we will miss him here! He was such a nice man.
Thinking of you all,

Naomi and Hal,
I'm sorry to hear of the passing of your father. I remember meeting him a long time ago.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and you family. I know you will all miss him.

When we bought Hal and Helen's house in Gardiner in 1979 my last comment to Hal was, "Are you sure you don't come with the sale?" He was that special.
My thoughts and prays go to Helen and the Stevens' children.

I am so sorry to hear of Mr. Steven's passing, please accept my sincere sympathy
