Not sure what to say?

Can´t believe it´s been 6 years! Thank you for "introducing" me to the Liberty movement. My life was forever changed.

Larry and Kathy, Thank you for sharing the loss of your son Shem with us. We understand some-what your pain and sadness. We lost our daughter at age 16 to a car accident 35 years ago and never stop thinking of her. We wish you peace and heartfelt condolences and wish that we could offer you more. He will be in your thoughts and memories for the rest of your life

At this time of great loss and tragedy I send my condolences to all family and friends that were blessed to have Shem touch their lives. Having only been in the Kellogg family for a decade my time spent with Shem was perhaps at a handful of family occasions but what I do know is that he had a way of lighting up a room when he arrived and family loved and respected him and his path. His accomplishments were many for such a young man, time cut way too short. I know he will be missed by many,...

Larry, Kathy , & Sarah ,
So sorry to hear about the loss of Shem. I have amazing memories of all the Kellogg get togethers and celebrations. He's going to be greatly missed by all. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Kathy and family,
I cannot imagine the depth of pain and sadness a parent feels with the loss of a child. My heart aches for you. It is so clear from reading guestbook that you raised an amazing young man. May you somehow find peace in knowing that his life had such a positive impact on so many others. Best,

Our deepest condolences, thoughts and prayers from your friends at the Kingston Lions Club.

Dearest Kathy and Family,
May you find peace and strength in treasured memories. Hold memories close, for they will lift and carry you forward.
In deepest sympathy,
Carol Carson-Leinhart

Larry,

My sympathy goes out to you and the entire family on the loss of your brilliant, energetic Son Shem. May the Angels take good care of him now.

I know I also speak for my co-workers here at Massachusetts Water Resources Authority in expressing my deep sadness and sympathy towards Shem's family, friends and colleagues, but also profound gratitude to Shem for his professionalism, technical fortitude and kindness - always kindness - in the engineering work he performed for us that made our projects successful for the good of the environment and all of us.
