Your first birthday without you here to hug.
Here's hoping the Fighting Irish don't let you down this year.
Love you, Grandpa.

Dear Pat and the Hosty Family, We were so sorry to read about the loss of your dad. John and I met him when we stayed one weekend at the Hilton. What a great guy he was. So friendly and personable. We can imagine how much you will miss him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Fondly, Gail and John Haneberg

"Mr. Hosty" sat at the security station behind me at the Conrad Hilton for many years. It made working there very enjoyable--what a great sense of humor. I'm sure he will be greatly missed.
