Cathy,

Wishing you God's peace and comfort at this time. Your father has earned his eternal reward and is blessed by you, your siblings and all who knew him.

On behalf of the Loepp family our thoughts and prayers are with all of you with the passing of Mr. Connelly. He and Peg were such goodfriends with my parents, Bob and Mary, during and beyond the great Guardian Angels Days. May Joe Rest In Peace ! Dan Loepp
