To Karen and Lisa. I'd like to offer to you my deepest condolences at the passing of your beloved father. He was certainly a people person from the heart. As I looked at his picture I'm reminded of his kindness and knowledge extended to my grandparents regarding business matters involving their home. It wasn't till later in life I found out how he played an integral part in their business affairs. I also remember the many conversations with your father about his political role in the Sandy's community, specifically topics pertaining to the change he wanted to see. We were blessed to have such a man of integrity
. He certainly left an impression and a significant influence. May your tears turn to smiles and your heart burst into a song that reminds you of your dad. Sincerely Betty Lambert
