Joseph Splingaerd (1919 - 2011)

I would like to thank friends and family who posted or sent condolences, and those who attended Dad's funeral. I know he would have been pleased to have been able to sing at his own service via his CD.
Today, May 21, would have been Dad's 92nd birthday.

Our deepest condolences, Anne and Mike. It was always an inspiration to hear that Grandpa Joe sang for so many appreciative people. His family history was such an inspiration for you, Anne, for your monumental and important book research. You're in our thoughts.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. I was just thinking about your Dad a week or so ago. It must have been the day he passed. Such a sweet man. He is in a much better place.
Sharon Daley Harold, Reedsport, Oregon

A life well-lived is a lasting inspiration. Hold dear in your hearts treasured memories of your loving father. Sending my deepest sympathy and prayers!

I am so sorry to here about your dad. Many thoughts and prayers.

Funeral services for "Grandpa Joe" Splingaerd will take place on Tuesday, May 3rd, at Holy Cross Cemetery in Culver City.

I realized my mistake after submitting the obituary. Mum and Dad were married for only 49 years before she died. My request to change the number was sent yesterday, but apparently arrived too late. A. Megowan
