Not sure what to say?

Dear Maxine and Family,
Our sincere condolences on the loss of your loved one. Dr. Hackley was a good man, and a fine physician. His devotion to the Flint community is remembered with gratitude. He was our family physician, as well as many of our other family members' and friends'. We first went to him in 1952 through to his retirement. Dr. Hackley cared for us during well-baby visits, measles, camp shots, and Jim's multiple medical issues.

We will be thinking of you.

The family of DR. Hackley,I,want to send my deepest sympathies to you. DR. Hackley was my mothers DR. from1953 until she died in 1987 and was mine when I was a young boy. My mother thought he was the only DR to have and would not go to any other DR. My mother bought one of his oil paintings and it now hangs on my wall and everytime I look at it I think of DR. Hackley. He was a good DR. and a good man. I,am very sorry for your loss.

My thoughts & prayers are with the family of Dr. Hackley at this sad time. I am a nurse who has fond memories of the Dr. He was kind to his patients and treated the nurses at St. Joseph's Hospital with respect and professionalism. He was very special !

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

To Rick and the entire Hackley family:
Please accept my deepest sympathies. May family and friends bring warm comfort and fond memories.

The loss of someone so close is difficult to bear. We share your grief.
