Not sure what to say?

Dear Stepovich family - I was certainly saddened to hear of your fathers passing. Our prayers and condolences go out to you all from the Cutrona family. While my dad was stationed at Ft Wainwright (1963-65) our parents were good friends, and had some great times together. Your parents hosted us at your Harding Lake cabin as we were leaving Alaska back to the lower '48 in 1965. Your Dad left a legacy you are all certaily proud of and should be.

He was a great man!

God Bless you...

My heart goes out to each of you. My father and I deeply respected your Dad. Prayers and love. Grondin-Kious family.
