Not sure what to say?

Dear Mr.Prentice,
I didn't know you for that long or very well but I know that everyone loved you so I decided to,too . I wish I could've gotten to know you better before you passed. I'm going to miss you even if I didn't know you that well, rest easy Mr. Prentice. Prayers go out to your family.

Dear Grandpa,
I love you so much and i always will. you are deeply missed and i will always cherish the beautiful memories we shared. love you forever pop<3 xoxo

We've known the Prentice family since we moved from the Bronx to Staten Island. From there our families merged - Mr & Mrs P became like our uncle and aunt. Together they brought five children into the world who are beautiful monuments to their love. I am deeply sorry for their pain. We share it. In the Eastern Church it is customary to pray, "May God grant him eternal memory" because, we believe that if God were to "forget" us, we would cease to be. But, God never stops loving, forgiving...

Dear Hughie,

Thank you for being such a wonderful friend. I will miss and love you always. Deepest sympathy to Ann and all the kids and many grandkids who he adored.

Mr. Prentice was a great friend to our family for many, many years. He and my father were best friends from 'The Old New York Days' until my father's sudden death back in 1986. He and his wife Ann continued to be true friends to my mother and made routine visits to her in Maryland up until Mr. Prentice was no longer able to travel. He was a good man who will be greatly missed. I sincerely hope and pray that my Dad and Mr. Prentice are once more enjoying a good laugh together somewhere...

Sorry to hear Mr. Prentice passed. I worked at the Plant and from time to time had to work with him. My condolences.

We will miss you. Thanks for being a great neighbor and friend to us for all of these years.

RIP

My prays are with the family. He was very loving and caring person. He always made me laugh during special events at the Garofalo house.. He will be deeply missed.
