Dear Kim and family,

Dear Kim and Terry, I used to clean for your dad at his home in Gahanna, before he moved in with you. He was a sweet and gentle man with a heart of gold. He spoke of you and your children so fondly. And most of all he spoke of your mother Kathryn, with so much love. I thought of him often through the years, and took great comfort knowing he was in your care. I knew he would spend his final years with his family that he loved so much. You are in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. Lori Conkle
