I am very sorry to hear about the loss of your father, Louis. I am also sorry that I never got a chance to meet your father but, he must have been a class act to raise a good and decent man like yourself.



May God be with your father, mother, William, Tracy and yourself.

Dearest Helen & Family,



My deepest sympathy to you and your family at this time. I will never forget the support you gave to my mother and father during my father's illness. Lou always had a smile on his face and always helped to lighten things up for us. You both truly helped to lift us up during the difficult times. I know that you will receive the same love and support. Please know that with God's help and the wonderful friends and family that you have, you will get through this time. Much love, Bob, Maria and Ana Elmiger

I hope you are all well. I do particularly want to make a note to Will. Your grandfather was an example for me as to how to treat my own grandchildren if I am ever fortunate enough to have them. I hope you remember his input in your life, and his good example.
