Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear of your husbands passing.I have many fond memories of him when he came to Silvies Valley to hunt deer with Mervin Purdy and my husband George Purdy and other family members. A nicely done painted metal sign proclaiming "Granato Pass"still is hanging on a tree where he put it.

Jo,
My deepest condolences. I have many fond memories of Ralph and the holiday dinners with the Gimarelli family.
Love, Gene Siegel

Jean Bullwinkle and her daughter, Martha Dorrell, send their condolences.

Jo,

We are so sorry about your loss. You and Ralph have been a great part of the neighborhood for so long. I have so many wonderful memories including both of you. And I know Don and Helen thought you were terrific neighbors and friends. Ralph will be missed very much. We will stop by for another visit again soon.

Josie,
Jim and I are so sorry for your lose of your wonderful husband and friend of nearly 75 years. I have fond memories of Ralph as he was usually the master of ceremonies at any gathering that mom and dad attended. You both were such good friends to mom and dad, and you all had such fun together with the St. Michael's group. Mom and dad loved to go to Reno with all the gang. It was one of the only places he would go and leave his beloved garden. Thank you again, and I'm so sorry...
