Dear Shirley and Magnier Family,
Mike was very special to me and was a proud Veteran. He touched the lives of the staff and residents of the Victory House. I appreciated his quick wit and keen observations. He was thankful for the love and friendships in his life. You were his bride and love of his life. I will never forget his wisdom, smiling blue eyes or his love of orange soda....

Shirley, I was so sorry to see that Mike had passed on. Thankfully you have your family and friends to help comfort you. I would like to do whatever I can to make this easier for you. My prayers will be for both of you.

Nancy,
I just read of your father's passing and it brought many memories of you and your family. Your parents were so fun and fun loving and I know your entire family must feel much sadness. I, too have recently lost my father, so I do know. I miss talking to you and keeping up but very occasionally hear wonderful things about Sarah and Charlie. Please contact me if you would like. I would love to hear from you. Please give my love to your mother and brother and sisters. I miss and...
