Rosalie, I am so sorry for your loss as it is for many of us. Bill and I spent quite a few years at IBM and I have fond memories of the time we spent together both at work and socially.

It is with deep regret I will not be able to attend his memorial service as I will be out of town on Sunday the 8th please accept my heartfelt condolences and my prayers are with you and family.

I am sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in God's promise that we can see our loved ones again John 6:40 and 1 Thessalonians 4:13.

Dear Rosalie,

Debby and I are so sorry for your loss. Our family has a little verse that we have passed down for years, I hope it will bring you some comfort;

Perhaps they are not stars shining down from heaven, but the smiles of our loved one's who have passed just letting us know they are happy and not suffering
