I am so sorry for your loss.

To Cheryl and family. Sending condolences. The picture video is beautiful!! (NCHS class of 76)

I have very fond memories of your dad. He was one of the great generation and he lived it. I love all you girls and always felt I was still part of the greater family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I join in the celebration of your father's life.

Sorry to read about John's death. He and his family were very good friends while we were raising our families. He was also a very good co-worker of mine in the Gyro Shop at CNSYD. I know he will be missed by many.

So sorry to hear about your Dad! Hoping fond memories will ease sorrow and sadness.
Sincerely,
Wayne and Dawn(Ellison) Smith, NCHS,1973 &1974

What a great life this man had. May you be at peace with his memory.
