Dearest Joan,
PLease accept our deeply felt condolences. We truly loved and admired Oscar. He was that rare thing - a true gentleman. The fact that he was also a great sportsman endeared him to our hearts. Love of the outdoors, sailing, fishing and hunting added to the true image of a rare renaissance man. None better! Much love, Mary & Andrew Whist.

When I think of Oscar I think "I hope people will think as highly of me as they think of him" a life well lived is a gift to all you come into contact with. I thank Oscar for sharing himself, he has been the Gift. God Bless

It's been a privilege to have known Oscar. Many have spent a lifetime without meeting a true gentlman such as he. He's left us all with many fine memories.
