Bill, Kathy and family
I was very sorry to read of the loss of your dear father. I have fond memories of a very kind man during our college days at UPS. I even remember the time I traveled with the UPS Basketball team as their Trainer to an exhibition game we put on at Bill's Morton High School, your parents were thrilled to have all of us, fed us, spoiled us and made us all feel like extended 'family'..... I know it's been many yrs since those days at UPS but I was very sad to read of...

Dear Rae, Janice, Bill & families - You have our sincerest condolences at the loss of Vlase.

The Bakamus family,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Vlase was an "icon" to all of us growing up, and your family was one we all thought so highly of throughout our lives. Our thoughts and prayers to all of you.

You all are in our thoughts and prayers. Having lost my Dad in June last year and Bobby's mom just last month I know the pain of losing a parent. What a wonderful man and what a great, long life he had. Once again, our thoughts.

Rae and Bakamus family,

What a wonderful man! Warmest handshake around, Vlase always took a few minutes to talk when we'd see each other at UPS or Mark Morris games. He was sincerely interested in how our family was, so gracious and genuine, a true honor to know him. Vlase was unique and special, may peace be with him and all of you during this time.
