Not sure what to say?

Today as I was discussing my very odd looking foot damaged from a motorcycle accident I had in 1976, that has miraculously bore me through life all these years, I thought of the man who performed that miracle for me so many years ago at Holden hospital which is no longer there. He jokingly named me crash and I spent many months with him rebuilding a part of my body which thanks to him is still there. He was a great doctor and a great man.
My deepest appreciation and respect.

Dear Meg and family,
We were so sorry to learn of your loss! The Spring 2018 Nativity Newsletter brought us the unwelcome news. We so enjoyed seeing you both at the 50th reunion, and hoped we would get together again sometime. Be assured of our deepest sympathy, our prayers, and our hope that all the great memories you made together will comfort you.

Dear Meg and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I will always miss you here at VIM. Jack was such a wonderful man and he even tried to help my son when he ruptured his leg muscle in NY. A very compassionate man. I hope that you are still at St. Gregory the Great.
May he Rest in Peace.
Love,
Bella

Dear Meg and Family, Mary Ann, and Michael,
I send prayers for your comfort during this painful time of losing Jack's physical presence in your lives. His strong faith and great spirit reassure me that He will live on in peace with God, for the good of us all. I grieve with you. Jack has been a special hero of mine since Mary Ann and I became friends in 1st grade. How I treasure the memories! I was so blessed to spend so much time in your home. Jack was the "big brother" I always...

From a fellow veteran, thank you for your service. To your family and friends, please accept my condolences.

Meg and family,
It is our prayer that you and the family be given the fullest measure of God's Grace of condolence at this time of Jack's passing into God's embrace.
Truly "one of the good guys"
