Not sure what to say?

Margie, your Dad was such a personable, caring man, along with your Mom and Rick. I'll always treasure memories from the River of Ace, "Dolly Duck" and Rick - especially Rick - what with his antics ... too many memories to list here. And Margie, you are a part of those memories that we lived ... and we all grew up together, at Wild's cottage, your cottage, Jim Doering's cottage, just a few of the places we hung out. The back room of the Guzzle ... I wish I had known that Ace passed; I...

My most sincere condolences. I will always remember the times helping him on the campaign trail and all the advice he was willing share.

Thinking of you and wishing you moments of peace and comfort through this difficult time.

Margie, I am so sorry to hear about your dad and brother. My condolences to you and your family.

I worked at American Airlines from 1957 to 1961 in reservations, and worked with Dick, who was then a boarding agent at the airport. He was always very pleasant to work with, and did a great job managing the passengers, and helping us in reservations with any last minute changes. With him the Departures were all smooth and timely. This is one of my good memories. To his family, I offer my deepest condolences .

So sorry to hear of Ace´s passing, especially so close to Rick´s. I will always remember Ace and all the kindness he showed towards me during our times at the river. He always had a smile and I never heard him say a bad word about anyone. He will be missed. My condolences to Margie, David, Rachel and Chris

He worked for ADP as a part-time delivery driver, very nice person.
