Not sure what to say?

To Martha, I miss Si everytime I receive something from Foote. Our 1959 class notes are forever gone. He was a gracious host for our reunions. Knowing him personally growing up at Johnson Point is another memory. Until I read his obit I never could have guessed he did it all because he was very humble. You and your children have a proud heritage. Bunny

I still miss you Si. A long time friend. Bunny Fazekas

Sending love and happy memories to the Venter family. Wishing the best for all of you in this part of your life without Josh. He will be in your hearts forever.

Still missing you, Josh but all your family is doing well

Dear Martha, I just now read of your husband Josiah's untimely passing. While I did not know him, by all accounts he was a wonderful man who gave tremendously to the community, like yourself. My daughter Natalie Schultz-Henry (who attended Hopkins) and I are so sorry for your loss.

You will always be missed. Thanks for all you gave.

I will always be greatful for his friendship and unquestioning support. My wife Pat, also remembers the fun times we had together as couples. If you ever come to northern VA call us we would love to see you. Are hearts are with you.

Dear Martha, So sad to hear of your loss. Josh was a good man and his presence missed. He lived a good life, but gone too soon. My condolences to you and the children.

Dear Martha,

I just read of Si's passing last Oct 2 in Foote Prints and I am deeply shocked and saddened. We go back to childhood and I have so many wonderful memories. And more recently you both have been gracious hosts to Class of 1959 reunions. A life well lived.
Love, Bunny
