Not sure what to say?

Dear Debbie,
The loss of your father has affected many lives. Most importantly it has been a difficult time for you. It broke my heart to see your grief in Church. We both know though, that he is now in a wonderful place.
His mass was a very moving experience. The procession of priests, your mom taking up the gifts and the kids giving the eulogy was a loving tribute to him. Your dad gave so much of himself to others, and thought the world of all of you.
I hope that...

Mrs. Scrak,Debbie, Ricky & Patti-
Mr. Scrak was such a kind & caring man! He will be missed by many people. I am truly blessed that my family has shared his friendship.
He truly was a kind & gentle man. I know that he is at peace & no longer suffering even though it is most difficult for those left behind! We are most fortunate to have known such a great man- so kind & gentle. We will truly miss you Mr. Scrak!

Aunt Mil, Debbie & George, Ricky & Jane, Patti & Bill & of course the Grandkids,
Uncle Dick meant many things to many people - A family man, a religious man, a "sportsman" - but above all he was a child - a child of God - he is now up in the heaven with Jesus watching down upon you and interceding for you. He was loved by everyone and always had a kind word - but his legacy remains - his legacy of his family whom he deeply cherised and loved. We were all blessed having known the...

Thank you Pop-pop for being the ultimate role model that anyone could ever ask for. You were the person in my life who I admired the most for how unselfish you always were with your time and efforts. You taught me many valuable lessons in my life through your words and actions which I will hold very dear to me. I know you are in a better place right now and can watch over us more now than you could before, but you will be greatly missed by all of your family and friends!! Thank you for being...

Dear Rick and Jane,
The true measure of wealth is the treasure we have in heaven---your father has that--Peace to you at this most difficult time. Our prayers are with you and your family--The Lord will take care of you and keep you in his care. If you want to talk call us--we will always be there for you--Love and Peace

Dear Mrs. Scrak, Debbie, Rick and Patti,

Well I have known you all 40 years and can still remember Mr. Scrak's scramburgers.

We were all very lucky to know your husband/Dad but not as blessed as you were to have him in your lives.

I am sorry for all your pain, but I know Mr. Scrak "Dick" is watching us all with his smile and taking some of our pain away as he can.

Love, Karen (Debbie, FTTE)

Dear Millie, My deepest sympathy on the loss of your Husband. He was a kind, gentle and loving man. It was evident in his care of his fellow brothers and sisters at the Ecumenical Soup Kitchen. It was an honor to serve with both of you. I will keep you in my prayers. Sincerely,
Irene A. Macus

Dear Pop,

I don't know where to start. I knew you a long time and have nothing but fond memories. I didn't need a father, as you know I have one who was always there. But it didn't stop you from treating me like a son, and for that I am grateful. I was Rick's friend and that was good enough for you. Even back then, in my youth, that meant something. It means so much more now.

You passed on never knowing, in words, what you meant to me. That was because I was too...

Dear Millie,Debbie & Rick,
I'm so sorry to hear about Dick. I've known him since I was little and what a wonderful person he was.He is in a better place now. Please know my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
