Dear Ken and family. I had fond memories of your dad with the Boy Scouts. Shooting .22 cal rifle at the Bett Toomey Post,life saving swim class at the LHS pool on Friday nights and a ever present fixture at Camp Tekawitha. Always providing sound instruction and advice.

Dear Suzanne and Ken ... I will carry many fun memories of your Dad especially at Girl Scout camp. He welcomed all he met into his big heart. Your Mom did as well, and both will be sorely missed. May you find a light in the darkness, and peace during this difficult time.

Ken, Suzanne, Dick, Shirley, and family,
I will always remember how friendly and smiling your dad/brother was. How inspiring to someone when they were growing up.
I have since moved several times away, but I remember how proud he was of you both.
May God send you many angels at this time to comfort you in your darkest hours.
Let us begin to celebrate all of his life.
May God bless all of you, today.
sincerely,

Henry and Anne Bonarek
