Read MorePam and Connie and families, Rick and I are so saddened to hear of the loss of both parents so close together. Rick grew up in the "hood" with you guys and has many fond memories of your folks. I worked with your mom in surgery and she was quite a spitfire
:-) . Must have been that German heritage. We will miss them both and you have our deepest sympathy.

Al & Helen are thought of as "one" to me. It is our loss that the gentleness of these two are no longer with us, sitting in that pew up front at HUMC. They became so dear to us in choir. We are sad, but know that the angels will sing with them now & they are in a place where the blind can see & there is no pain. Our deepest sympathy to the family.

She loved music so very much and was an important part of our church choir along with Al. Now she and Al can sing with Heaven's choir. May God give peace to the family and those of us that miss them.

Connie and Pam, I am so sorry about the trauma of your Mom and Dad passing so close together. It also hurts all of us that have known them for so many years. I have worked with them both in the past at the hospital and with your dad at Gentiva, we had some fun times together. Your mother and I have kept close contact by phone ever since I moved to texas. She always kept me informed of all that was going on. She was always so proud of what you both had done and of the grandkids.

I love seeing Helma and Al at Walgreens pharmacy. I will miss them both very much. I felt a special connection to Helma and Al. My father met my mother in Bamberg, GE, while he was stationed there in the Army. I loved talking to them about Germany. I am so sad to hear that they are gone.

June will always be a special month to me, so much hurting, so much loss, but so many blessings, so much healing and love and new beginnings. Carol, Ed, Pastor Jerry, Claudia, Nettie and John you are the ones who held us together, lifted us up, cried, shared and in the end became family to Rick and myself. We could have never made it without each and every one of you, and in the months and years ahead it's through your eyes, your stories, and your love that mom and dad will never really be...
