Dear PIERSODM ... Presuming this is Denny Pierson from my Buick City days, that is.
So sorry to hear of your loss ... 'Been there myself in the past couple of years so I have some sense of what you and your family are experiencing.
I think it's the one of the worst parts of *our* growing older ... parents do, too.
Thinking of you ...

To Mr. and Mrs. James Conner:
Livingston said, "There is nothing so final or melancholy in its consequence, than death."
I did NOT know Mr. Pierson, but I wish I did. However, I know what you two contributed to making his life comfortable was significant.
Now in death, his needs have all been met. The difficult chore is for the living. I hope you can reflect on the positive times.
May God bless you all?
