Not sure what to say?

Uncle Beenie I will always remember you. You were an inspiration to me.

My thoughts and prayers are with my family. All of us miss you, your niece.

I am so grateful to have been a part of Uncle Bill's Life! Because of him, I got to spend quality time with his children while my own child was but a baby. I got to know and love Aunt Doris. I met Queen Elizabeth and Prince Charles.....I got roses, hugs, kisses and lots and lots of stories. Thanks, Uncle Bill. I love you, Man!

Dear Doris and Family,

My deepest sympahy and prayers for you and yours for the loss of your husband and father...Doris, I missed coming to the services because of obligations with grandchildren...I think of you often and how your friendship from being together when our children were babies influenced my life. I would love to talk with you again.
Be Blessed!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Denny, Chester, Edwina and Edward, my thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. Your father was a mentor and a friend. He will be missed and Canton Ohio will not be the same without him.

God Bless

Chet, you and your family are in our thoughts.

Doc as we knew him was a wonderful person. My mom Virginia Glass was at the Laurel's of Massillon for six years and Doc was a loving force to our family. He was always there for us. He also got my mom to come out of her room and do things, rather than sit by herself. We really enjoyed his stories and his knowledge. My mom passed 8-07 but Doc was there for her and us in her last days. God Bless his family. We did get to meet a few of you and it was our pleasure to know and meet you. ...

Edwina and Family,
I am truly sorry for your loss ,but what a terrific man and father! Growing up and spending time with your family- the memories are absolutely priceless. The first dozen roses I ever received were from you and your dad on my 17th birthday. Until then I had never seen yellow roses, and they were beautiful! I will remember this forever.

Dr. Wilson was an extraordinary man, he always tried to teach us something about life and how to enjoy it to the fullest as he...
