Not sure what to say?

Great Uncle Raymond and Aunt Janet were wonderful people to let the Eleanore Lockhart Meehan family spend summers in their home. In my young mind Paul and Bill were much older cousins that let me and my brothers look into their room and would even talk and play with us; I had a cousin crush on both. These fond memories are forever held close to me. A visit from Paul, Maggie...

When Henry told me the sad news this morning, Bill's wonderful impish smile came to my mind and it has been there ever since. And behind that smile such a special person.
May the memories that you share bring you strength.

I am so sorry for your loss, Hannah. It has been far too many years since we saw each other! I lost my own Dad this May. I will be thinking of you and your family at what I know is a very tough time. I never met your father, but I see you in his face-that photo exudes kindness and love of life. ❤

"Susie" dear friend, I am so sorry to read of Bill's passing. Lots of memories rushed through my head. My heart is so sad for you and yours and Paul and Bill's family. Bill was a gentleman and a scholar. Sending you love.
