Florence & Family,
We are so sorry for your loss of a dear and sweet man. We've missed Leroy's neighborly wave as we've driven or walked by and his little chats when he'd toddle across the street with the dog. Barry's dad had alzheimer's so we personally know the mixed blessings that come with their passing. Our love and prayers are with you and we're here if you need us for anything. God Bless.

To the Dieringer Family - I want to express my deepest sympathy, even though I never knew your Dad, personally, but my father, Bill Arnold, did alot of painting for him, and your Dad thought that my Dad was the greatest painter that there ever was (per my brother, Lee)! I knew the name, as soon as I saw it, and my Dad died on 01/31/71, but I remember my Dad working for Leroy! May God bless you all with peace and comfort at this time! Sharon (Arnold) Silvestro

Dear Jim, Kathy,& sons, I am so sorry to hear about the sudden and untimely passing of your Dad. I remember and will never forget how great you and Kathy were to me when my Dad died. When I was a teen, I always wished I looked more like my Mom, as she was the prettier of the two...then, as I was getting ready to go to my Dad's funeral, looking in that same mirror, I saw my Dad looking back at me in the mirror. I was so glad to look like him. So now, when I look at that mirror, and see my "Dad" looking back, I am gratefull that life let me look like him, and am comforted by that. When you are saddened, and miss him, just go to the mirror. Your Dad will be there, too, Jim.

Dear Fred and family
Our heartfelt sympathy to your family at this time of loss. Uncle Paul Hoch was deeply sorrowed when hearing of Maria's passing. Had he been stronger he would come in person to support in your grief.
I will keep you all in my prayers.
