Not sure what to say?

My deepest condolences to Leonard and Louise on their family's loss. I will always remember your father for his profound dignity that he projected, as a father, business man, and role model, in the Lehigh Valley. He was a great man and will be truly missed.

Dear Leonard, Ruth, Julie, and Family,
Please accept my sincere condolences on your loss. I did not have the pleasure of having known Mr. Busby, but I am aware of his many enduring contributions to the Lehigh Valley business community and to us as its citizens. Our mutual friends revere him also as one devoted to his beloved family. May his memory be eternal and his wonderful legacy endure.

Dear Leonard and Louise,
We offer our sympathy on your Dad's passing. Cindy and I are with my Dad now recalling the many virtues of your Dad and the tremendous contributions he made to the Lehigh Valley. His sense of humor shines through the obituary. Peace, your friend, Tom Donley

First met Mr Busby when I caddied for him at Saucon Valley Country Club. As a young kid I had the privilage to be part of his foursome and he impressed me very much with regal bearing on the course that day. Rest in peace and condolences to his family..

Every once and a while we are allowed to briefly enter someone's life -
When Louise was a young girl, I was asked to be her babysitter.
I must admit that I was a bit intimidated just by the name "Jack Busby". This person was well known and a business man respected throughout the Lehigh Vally. Not only was I going to meet him, but I was also going to be responsible for his only daughter.
I distinctly remember being greeted by a regular man...not someone who appeared...
