Mr. Eames,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USN during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Remembering all the fond memories of times at your house, the camp and all the holidays together. Uncle Billy was always a supportive and fun uncle that I will always remember.

Hello,
I just want to say I am so very sorry on your Dad's passing on. I was just sharing with my mom about all the great memories we have with your dad. All the boat rides, he was always there in the neighborhood to fix our bikes, I always remember his laugh, how he helped me with the pulling out of my bloody tooth. Your dad, my uncle was a great great man. He surely will be missed. We will be praying for you as you go through this most difficult time. Love Sheila and Bobby David Steven and Melissa

Dear Bobbi, Janet, Judy, Marianne and Jack,
The most important thing that someone can give you are memories. Uncle Billy and Aunt Peggy gave us that. We remember the Christmases in Winchester when Santa would visit our children and the wonderful times we had at the camp. Then later, our children got to experience those same fun times with all of you. Those memories will be in our hearts and minds forever........
Love,
Tom and Rose
