Not sure what to say?

I am so saddened to learn of Bill's passing today. Your Dad, Bill Matlock, and my late husband Monroe used to discuss all the world events under the shade of the Matlock's big oak tree. Monroe always came away with jokes and stories to share from their sessions! Your Mother always took the time to visit with me when she took her daily walks. They were such good neighbors...27 years...and will be missed more than you know. May God give each of you comfort and peace now and in the time to come.

Sorry to hear of your loss. Your Mom and Dad were our dear old friends from Woodbury and Woodbury Heights. In fact your mother was one of my best friends going back a long time- more then just the class of"53" from WHS. We went through grade school together. A lot of pleasant memories.

Amazing how God works through circumstances, as I got curious about an old friend and googled her name and found that her father has just recently passed. Donna, Richard and Debbie, prayers are going up for you, from old old neighbors from Newark Delaware on Spruceglenn Drive. I remember your father .....he drove my mother to the hospital as she went into labor with my sister, Jill, and my dad was away on business. He walked mom into the hospital, laid her suitcase down and started to walk...

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

We are so sorry for your loss. Thinking of all of you today.

TO THE FAMILY,I EXPRESS MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY AT THIS VERY DIFFICULT AND PAINFUL TIME.PLEASE FIND COMFORT AT ISAIAH 45:18.A.W.HOUSTON,TX.

My sympathy to your family. may the God of all comfort help your family to endure during this time of grief.

I was very sorry to hear of your lose. I was very close to Bruce's grandmother who was my nanny for many years. Uncle Bill, Aunt Sue, and Uncle Harry were like a family to me. I have great memories of them all growing up on Queen St. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Colvin family.
