Not sure what to say?

Kathy, I don't know if you remember me, but I was a good friend of your mother, when I lived in W-S. I first met her when she lived on Sunnydel, and we became instant friends.

To the Vessells family

Harold and I were very fortunate to have known and lived beside your mother and father for several years. We own two sculptures that Troy made and are so very proud to have them. She was always so gracious and sweet. When we moved in 1998, she had a great cookout for us and invited all the neighbors. Not many neighbors are as special as your parents. We loved them very much.You were truly blessed with their love.

Kathy and family - I was so sorry to hear of your mother's death. You will be in my prayers

Sorry to hear about the passing of Troy. She was a wonderful person, friend, and next door neighbor to us on Sunnydell Drive. It was always a pleasure to be around and with Frank and Troy. We miss them both.

Kathy and family: Our prayers and thoughts are with all of you during this difficult time. Your friends from St. Thomas, BSM and Minneapolis are thinking of you.

Dear Kathy, Skipper, Steve and families,

Kathy has been a dear friend of mine for more than 25 years, giving me the opportunity to meet Troy several times.

I’m sure this is a difficult time for the...

Just wanted to quickly thank all of you for your very kind thoughts. Mom would be very happy to know she was loved like this.
