Dear Judy and Family, It has been so great being neighbors and having you and Bob as special friends for over 40 years.

Brian,
I’m saddened to hear about the passing of your father. I didn’t have the privilege of meeting him. However, if you are anything like your dad I know that he was honest (a man of integrity) hard working, and loved the challenge of problem solving. These are a few things I know about you and I’m sure were duplicated in his life.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family,
Steve Wayward

I met Judy at the laundromat where she works. She is very kind, helpful and respectful to everyone that she meets. She always has something nice to say and in spite of the rough life she has been experiencing, she emits a positive and loving spirit. I go to her laundromat because she treats me so kindly. I'm very sorry for her loss. I know that she loves her family. I hope that her burden is not too heavy and that she knows there are many people who's life she has touched that care for...

Our prayers go to the Bob Stickler family in this time of grief. Bob and I go way back to the old airport Northern air Service,Centurion Flight Center, Grand Aero, and Kal Aero. We spent many hours together on the highway traveling between Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo. Bob and I left Northern Air together to start our next phase in our career at Centurion Flight Center back in 1971. We always seemed to have a lot to talk about and shared ideas on how the Avionics and maintenance departments...
