Rich and the Milburn family -
I was so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy along with that of my parents, Betty Lou and Bob Bukowski. Carl made significant contributions to the people of the greater Arlington Heights area over the years - he will be remembered fondly.

Rich and Milburn family,

I was so saddened to hear the news of the passing of your father.

I just want you to know that he will be with you always...he will live on in spirit and you'll see that often in the things and people around you.

May the good Lord bring you peace and comfort this week and during the days ahead. I know that your faith is strong, you'll need to draw on it often.

I pass along this Psalm that a good friend passed on to me over 2 1/2 years ago:

Psalm 34:18
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; he rescues those who are crushed in spirit.

My heart is heavy today. I will keep your father, the family and friends in my daily prayers.

May the Peace and Grace of God be with you today and everyday.
