Not sure what to say?

Judge Ard was a friend and colleague of my father's. He was a good guy.

Dear Patricia. So sorry to hear about your father's passing. I was just speaking about several big families at St. James School in Springfield NJ and thought about your family and the Fernandez family. I recently received a letter from St.James School and the diocese of Newark and wondered how they found me down here in Melbourne FL. I recently met a number of people from Springfield at my brother Bob's daughter's wedding in Florida since he married into the Lovett family from St.James...

A great man & wonderful person.

My thoughts & prayers go out to Beth and the entire Ard family.

My condolences to the Ard family. I recall Judge Ard from our sporting events when we were children. He is in a great place now with his wife.

May God Bless Uncle Jack's family in this time of sorrow.

My deepest condolences to all my cousins. I have fond memories of your Dad (Uncle Jack) growing up. May he rest in peace with Grandma and Grandpa Ard and Aunt Mish. Chris Ard

sincere condolences to the Ard family on the passing of Judge Ard. It was an honor to have made his acquaintance over the past several years. A giant of the legal profession and wonderful gentleman. I have great admiration for the love he showed for his family, his church, his profession. To say that he will be missed is a colossal understatement.

Sincerely,

Mike ONeill

Best wishes and condolences to all the Ard Family on the passing of The Judge. He was a wonderful man, as nice as he was brilliant and entertaining. He and Millie were good friends of my Mom and Dad, and we children always enjoyed seeing them at our home. I am traveling and am very sorry I will not be able to pay my respects in person. May you all find peace during this difficult time.

My sincere sympathy to all the children, especially Jane and Eileen, and Johnny, Peter and Tom.
I guess I just knew them better, and for a longer time.
Your mom and dad were both good friends during the Springfield years, and fine people, always..
