Cathy ~ I have memories of being at your house in Oakdale ~ Your Parents So Kind & Welcoming.... We have all gone our separate ways since then but just wanted to send you my thoughts and prayers to You and Your Family...

Matthew and all the Carroll kids I babysat, I loved knowing your family as a kid living across the street. Your parents were special.

Penny, I was sorry to learn of John's death. I will remember him in prayer at this difficult time. Barbara Simonds

Cate, deepest sympathy to you and your family on the passing of your dad. Sending prayers and hugs.

With the great consternation, we are so sorry for your loss. You have a wonderful dad and a strong loving family with great memories to share forever. I remember meeting your dad for the 1st time early one Monday morning in the middle of April in 2011. We (Joanie´s and Ted´s running crew) were staging at his house to get ready for the Boston Marathon. Your dad was so welcoming and kind and full of enthusiasm for us. What a great way to start the race. Thank you for sharing him with us....

But we will find comfort in the knowledge that you are in a better place,with your God whom you served faithfully and boldly. Your faith was fearless. Your belief was believable. Your care was comforting. Your laughter was contagious. Your love was steadfast and limitless. Your stories were heartwarming. When you gave...

Requiescat in pace amica meus! Ave at que vale!
