Not sure what to say?

Dear Ragatz Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. It was a shock to hear the news (late) of his passing. My prayers are with you all.

Bill,
In 1981 I worked for you and Bill at the Winter Have lot.
I cleaned the shop and detailed cars.
My best friend was Frank Kauble a mechanic.
You and Bill were the people who turned my life arround.
I would not know where to start in telling you how much Bill
and you ment to me.
I was the little guy that learned from the big guys.
What a loss !!

Dear Ragatz Family,
My wife and I were sad to hear of you're loss. I had the pleasure to work for Bill for years. He's the kind of man you wanted to do your best for because you respected him. He was a fair, hard working and with out a doubt loved his family very much.
Our deepest sympathies to the family and all who will miss him.

To the Ragatz family...I knew Bill through the Manheim Tampa Auction, where I work. He was always so pleasant. I enjoyed his keen sense of humor. He was a true gentleman. He will be missed. May your wonderful memories comfort you in the days ahead. Beverly Morrow
