Not sure what to say?

Dear Brian,
It was with great honor and pride to be a part of "Jiggs" celebration of life. Please know you and your family will always remain in our prayers. God Bless. Our sincere sympathy, and you and Bill will always be able to comfort each other with your loss, and all the joys you give each other.

Dear Brian: Please accept our deepest sympathy on the loss of your dear Dad.
Byron and Peggy Bradley

With deepest sympathy and prayers for you and your family.

Jiggs was a very special man who will be missed by all that knew him. My deepest sympathy to his entire family.

Thanks for being a great cousin and for all the fun we had when we were kids.

Brian, My deepest sympathy, your dad was one hell of a guy. I know my dad and yours are together in heaven now and they will look down on us and watch over their loved ones. God Bless

I worked with Jiggs and his Father for Roy Hooker many years ago, knew him over the years, and considered Jiggs a good friend. We would have been at the wake, but live too far away. He will always live on in my memory. You have our sympathy.

Jiggs was a dear friend and will be missed.

Jiggs was a beloved character who frequented our halls often with his matching tooth pick and beloved side kick, Dolly. We will miss his humor and sarcasm dearly as well as his Huck Finn's Bakers Dozen. He will always be a part of each one of us.
