Not sure what to say?

I have great memories

I am so sorry to hear/read that Dr. Scanlon passed away a few years ago. I worked for him at Research for Better Schools (RBS) before he left for a PA Secretary of State position (don´t recall official name of the PA government assignment)1. He came to mind this evening, so I looked for his name: I am sad to find his name in the obituaries; I was always impressed by him: professional, knowledgeable, intelligent, fair, encouraging, pleasant, and an all around super person to work for....

Many fond memories.

Will always be remembered.

Jim, Mark and families,
I am so sorry to hear about your father and please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. I am sure you have made him very proud and that is one of the greatest gifts a child can give to their father.

Chris and Doug
I am sorry to read of your loss. I was always so impressed by your relationship with your dad and the love and care. Please know that you are in my prayers and thoughts. Let me know if there is anything I can do.

My deepest sympathy to the Scanlon Family. My Mother (Josie Magda) as well as all of us thought the world of your parents. Be strong and when the sad thoughts come, think of the good times and the joy your Father brought into your lives and others.

We lost a good family member, my God bless you.

Christine,

Our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family. I know how much your dad meant to you. He was a great man and I enjoyed meeting him several times. He surely loved your girls and will leave a lasting impression.

Love Ray and family
