Not sure what to say?

My prayers are with all of you at this time of sorrow.

Mrs. Ammerman, Patty, Bill, Sarah and Family, I'm sorry for your loss.
Matthew 11:28
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
You are in my prayers; if I can do anything please contact me.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

"Mr Bill" was a wise man and a wonderful friend. We think often of him and will remember him fondly. He shared his stories and memories of WWII- the Navy in the South Pacfic and IBM, Dupont and the five years he worked at Philip Morris with us and always had a chuckle about one story or another. Yes, it was a an honor knowing him. God Bless his family and help them through this sad time. We sure were glad to have known "Mr Bill".
