Not sure what to say?

Dear Mel, Mary Ann and Lindsay:
I was so sorry to hear about the passing of your Dad, Mel. I know you and your Dad had a very close and special relationship and you were a good son. You, Mabs and I were raised by very good people and it is difficult to lose them no matter what the age. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you both and your entire family, as well as, the prayers of my family. I love you all. Love Donna

Dear Mel, I have been calling you and trying to find out where your father was for the past year. I had called his number on Heath St. and was told he didn't live there any more. I was in Boston this past June and called several numbers that were given to me when I called the roofing company. However, even when I went to the Moreland St. address where I had visited you before, I was told by neighbors that the business was closed. I finally was able to say my goodbye to 34 Edgar Ave....

Sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Hurley. He was a good friend to us and we will miss him.

Mel I am very sorry for your unexpected loss and what you maybe going through in the coming months. You were a good son! Your dad was your friend, father, at some point business partner, no anger nor regrets. God has blessed us with our fathers. God could not have written a better script for a relationship between a father and son. We have been truly blessed.

Mel and Maryanne:

We were so sorry to hear the news.

With much sympathy

Ann Marie and Mellie, you know how sorry I am of the passing of your Dad. My Marion said "don't be sad Bob he lived a long and happy life". I reminded her of what "Uncle Mellie" said to us 43 years ago at our wedding. "Bobby don't forget if you ever need anything come and see your Aunt and Me." I've learned so much from my Uncles and Aunts
and it is sad for me to say to the last of them, "thank you Uncle Mellie
we Love You.

Bobby and the Dooley(Starble) family

My prayers and thoughts are with You in this time of sorrow. May your memories bring You comfort.
