I am so sorry to hear of your father's passing. I worked for him at Publisher's Clearing House. He was a great boss and a caring and understanding man. I know he will be greatly missed. My prayers are with you.

Dear Jennifer and Keith,

In the early 1980's I did temporary work at Publisher's Clearing House and worked for someone that worked for someone that worked for your father. Your father was a great manager and was very well liked by everyone. He was very kind and knew how to motivate people through that kindness. There are many people whose lives have been touched and positively influenced by him. I'm very sorry to hear of his passing and your loss. He is in my prayers.

To The Family,
I worked with Tom at Northrop Grumman when he was in the Reston office. Tom was always a very upbeat, fun loving person. He was great to work with and would always speak highly of his family. Tom touched the life of many people in such a positive way and he will be truly missed. Please know that my prayers are with you all during your loss.

Dear Keith and Jennifer,

I knew your father in the 1980s when I worked at Publishers Clearing House in the MIS department. I am so sorry for your loss. Your father was a gentleman, kind, very supportive of his staff and a diligent, honest man. He had a great sense of humor and treated everyone with respect. I will remember him fondly. Please know that he and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Jennifer,

I just heard the news of Mr. Wackett's passing. Your father was a person full of love and appreciation. He was always thoughtful towards those of us here at Glade Valley Nsg. & Rehab Center. I remember getting the call from him when he shared with me the details of his situation. I remember that call like it was yesterday and it's been about a year. His concern for a promise he made your mother to always care for your grandmother moved me. Even while facing his...

Tom will be greatly missed.
I had a short opportunity to support one of Tom's tasks when he worked with Northrop Grumman at the Reston VA office a few years ago.
Tom was always a great guy and there to help out whenever we needed it. I am sorry for your loss.

Dear Keith and Jennifer, I don't know if you remember me, I used to come to your house in Greenlawn to repair your parent's appliances. I am friends with the Baldassarries on Unadilla Dr. I am so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing, he was a nice guy. Both your parent's were really nice people. No one knows why God takes some people away so young, I too lost both my parents at a very young age. My prayers and thoughts are with you at this difficult time, may God bless you.
