Robert E. Lorey M.S. D.D.S.

Eric, one of my fondest memories of your Dad was the last time I saw him. Last June it was...and on your wedding day. He had every good reason to be beaming. His son -- and my best friend -- was marrying the girl of his dreams. I never saw either of you happier than you were that fine day. I was so glad then to have made the trip up to Michigan. And now, of course, that trip has taken on extra meaning. Eric, Mrs. Lorey, Hillary, Vivian -- know how much every one of you are in my thoughts and...

I just wanted to tell you how sorry I was to hear about your dad's passing, Hilary. I know that you and he were very close. There is nothing that one can say to make this type of a loss less severe, however I can tell you that the pain eventually fades leaving only the loss and regret. Your dad will never really be gone; he will stay in your heart forever. I hope that you and your family find peace and consolation in the coming days.
