Not sure what to say?

Bill, Leona and family. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I know how hard it is. My prayers are with you. God bless you.

Dear Johanna and family,

I am sorry for your loss. I enjoyed my time with Joe on my hospice visits. I am glad Joe is free now.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Having just lost my father, I know the deep sadness your hearts feel, especially for one who lived such a beautiful life. May God hold you close. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Mike and Donna

Dear Bill, Leona and girls,
Our prayers are with you in the passing of Bill's father. It is always difficult to let go of a loved one even when it is time. He sounds like he was a man strong in his faith so he must have been prepared as one can be to leave this life on earth. We know he will be kept alive in your memories of him.
Thinking of you,
Lenore, Ron, Elyse and boys

Enjoying Backyard with Family and Friends ('66)

Tante Johanna, Francis, Jeff and John, your father will be dearly missed by our family. He was indeed a wonderful man and a favorite "uncle" to the Schreiner boys. The memories are strong and wonderful and I wish each of you peace in knowing that he has passed on to an even better life with his Lord. May God bless all of us that were blessed knowing Joe.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

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 Francis, I am so sorry for your loss. You don't know how lucky you are to have a father that loved his family more than anything. To have that kind of support is the greatest gift a parent can give to their children. Your father will live on because of his love and devotion to you, your brothers and the love of his life, your mother. My heart felt thoughts go out to you and yours. Marshelle Spafard
