Not sure what to say?

It's hard to pick out one specific memory of my papa to write about. I will never forget going out on the lake for hours trying to catch fish (trying being the operative word). There were a lot of times when we would go out and only catch a few small Perch or something like that, but Papa always had a way of making it feel like you'd just caught the biggest fish in the lake. I also remember going to the land to feed the deer. We never saw any, but just sitting out there with my brother...

I just learned of Cousin Robert's death from Melissa Slocum Kirk. I'm sorry I never got to meet him.
Condolences to all his family on behalf of his many cousins,
Bill Thompson,
Secretary, Campbell Reunion of Nelson

Dear Roberta & Aunt Edith,
We were very sadden to hear the death of Bobby. I know we lived miles apart and did not see each other much but there was always a special bond between all the Hackett cousins. I hope he will get to see my two sisters MaryJane & MarjorieEllen and all the other Hacketts that have gone before us. If you think of all the happy times you shared with Bob it will take some of the pain away and replace it with peace. All our love and prayers are with you and the...

Roberta and the Hackett Family,
I am sorry to hear of Bob's passing ~ my thoughts are with you today and the days to come. Hold your dear and fond memories close to your heart ~as Bob will always be near.

Dear Roberta, we were shocked when we heard the news. We had spoken too lisa several times & she said he was not well. I promised her i would make it up too see you both but you probably know how everyone says there going too something & we never take the time to do so. So we just want you to know how sorry we are and we will try to make it over to see you. If we can do anything at all please let us know. love your friends & neighbors scott & sue shutt

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome...
