I am sorry to hear about your father's passing away. You were blessed with a good and dedicated father. I am sorry I cannot be with you at this time. I will celebrate a Mass in his intention. I am with you in my thoughts. God bless you all.

Grandpa Devost - you have given me nice memories of many family gatherings on Leonard street, and laughs ! Thanks for taking us into your home and heart - Love Shayna, Jon, Allison, Riley and Jacob Fridinger.

My mother, Anne Sherman, lives at Allenwood. For many years she and Harvey sat at the same dinner table and, for all the years, they played Bingo together on Wednesday. I've also played to help her for the last couple of years and he was always so gentle and patient with Mom as her dementia deepened. I now sit in his seat and he is greatly missed.

I have been blessed and proud to call you Dad for over 25 years. You embraced our family as your own. Carol and I share so many wonderful memories of the times we spent together. This is what I will remember. Love, Dave
