Not sure what to say?

Dear Judy,
We are so sorry about the passing of your dad. We hope you can take comfort in the memories of your father. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Judy, I know that there are no words to say when you loose a parent, Know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. If there is any thing I can do or if you would just like to talk, please give me a call.

Dianne Shelton Waterman, class of 72

Phil was one of the nicest guys we ever met. He always had a smile on his face whenever we saw one another.

Judy,
Carrington Place will never be the same without P.E.'s smiling face and sense of humor! He was truly a gentleman as well as a 'gentle man.' Your father, as well as mine, were/are exceptional men and wonderful, loving fathers. I truly feel your loss and grieve with you.
Love to you and your family,

PE was a gracious and well-respected gentleman. We had the privilege of knowing him and his family and the physicians and staff of Carrington Place share in the family's loss. We will miss his sense of humor, his welcoming smile, and the great times we had together.

Mandy and I would like to express our condolences to your family. PE was one of our favorite residents when we worked at Carrington. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers
