Not sure what to say?

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome...

Dear Marilyn, Keith, Larry, Kyle, Gary & Family,

I just learned of your Dad's passing a couple of minutes ago. I'm sorry I was not there to express my condolences and offer support.
Jim was one of those rare people that you felt instantly comfortable with as soon as you met them.
As Jim's niece Jackie noted he always had a twinkle in his eye. Whenever I saw him he did have that twinkle and always a kind word to say.
My thoughts and prayers are with you...

Keith, I was saddened to hear about the passing of your dad. He always had a smile and a good word. He will be greatly missed by your family. Just keep up the good fight.

We are all greatly saddened by Mr. Leavitt's passing in our house. He was one of the nicest people I think I will ever have the pleasure of meeting. We used to enjoy seeing him walking Gussie around the neighborhood. Before we had to put our beloved Gunther down, Gussie and Gunther would "flirt" on their many excursions past our house. On the day we had to put Gunther down, we visited Mr. Leavitt with him and he offered Gunther some of Gussie's canned food as a treat, sort of his...

Keith and family,
I was so sorry to hear of your loss. I am happy that I was able to get to know your dad at Chelsea High School. He was a great man.
Sincerely,
Ellen Karp

Our thoughts and prayers are with all the Leavitts at this difficult time.Jim will be sorely missed especially at all the baseball games.May he rest in Peace.

We will miss seeing Mr. Leavitt walking the neighborhood with his dog. He was a kind neighbor and a real gentleman. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends who so obviously adored him.

He is no longer suffering and it's a blessing. He was a man that always had a twinkle in his eye and a smile on his face. A gentle man and the best uncle in the world. I will miss him greatly.
