Not sure what to say?

Dear Lorraine,

Our deepest sympathy to you and your family. Johnnie was so special in so many ways. He was also so much fun to talk to and be around. I can still hear him and how he answered the phone when I called. "HELLO" I'm sorry I missed his services, but I'll keep him and you in our prayers.

Dear Aunt Lorraine, Kenneth, Kathy, Kerry and Darlene,

I wish to pay my condolences for your loss.

I have a lot of fond childhood memories of our family visits thanks to my mom, Audrey. When we were younger we always visiting either greatgrandma Rose or Aunt Lolita, Aunt Erica or Aunt Lorraine and Uncle John...taking the streetcar from Brighton Park to 22nd & Bell. It was always fun on your block!!!

I also remember when Uncle John and Kathy, her daughter and Kerry...

Where do the memories start...
From when I was little...going across the street with my ma for 'coffee', uncle John working on bedroom for the 'boys', to the huge hunting dogs that lived outside....to spending many dinners and nights after my mom passed...to still driving in his 80's to see my grandson little Ross....
I have a picture on my desk, that I believe Auntie Lorraine gave me with a picture of Nonno, Nonni, Auntie Nella, Uncle John and my mom in front of the wine cellar....and...

Please accept our deepest sympathies.

Dear Aunt Lorraine, Ken, Kathy and Kerry,

Uncle John was a great man. He had such a huge influence in my life and I am grateful for that. He was warm and caring and always had a kind thing to say. I will miss his "hello Sweetheart" every time we spoke. My thoughts and my heart are with you.

Love,
Chris

Dear Aunt Lorraine, Kenneth, Kathy, Kerry and Darlene,
We are so sorry for the loss of Uncle John. He always had a big smile on his face whenever we would see him. Uncle John and dad were always so happy when they were together. We're sure he is on the biggest boat, in the biggest body of water, catching the biggest fish ever and smiling down on us. We love him and will miss him very much.
Love, Susan, Bill and Family
