Dear David
I am so grateful for your very moving eulogy at Dad's funeral Mass. You are a man of few words but your wonderful moving and sometimes humorous stories and memories brought many people in attendance to tears and laughter. I was so proud of you.
And as with weddings too, it was wonderful to bring Vicky and Kaitlyn with you to Binghamton to meet most of the Ravas and Loftus family members. Kaitlyn now calls Aunt Sis "grandma".

Dear Johanna,

I was so sorry to hear of your dad's death. I didn't see it until Monday night and so wasn't able to come to the funeral. Please accept Bob's and my thoughts and prayers. Love, Fran and Bob

Dear Johanna and David,

We were so saddened to learn about your dad. When we were in Binghamton in August, we stopped by to see him and he looked really good. He always had a big smile and a big heart. Our thoughts and prayers are with both of you and your families during this difficult time.

My prayers and thoughts are with you.
