Lodi, Ralph & Family,
There are no words to truly comfort you all at this time this we know but hold on to your "lifetime" of memories made over the years, take comfort in what we are to believe, when we leave our place on earth, we enter into eternity, once again amongst our friends and family who left before us, a place of peace, a place where now we become an agel with wings looking over our loved ones who have yet to make the journey of the departed.
Hold on to each other, remember the good times because it's all your memories that will live in your hearts 4-evermore.
Love, Lisa, Rick & Christopher Hamel
