To the Smith Family,
My sympathies and prayers are with each of you. The loss of a loved one is always most difficult on those left behind. Know he is at peace in a much better place than we know. With caring thoughts, I remember my childhood at IC School and Parish and how your family was always entwined with those activities.

I feel very fortunate to have know Mr. Smith, and very grateful for the stories he shared with me. My favorite has to be the story of how he met his beloved Rose. He had me in stitches when he told it. Even though I suspected he had told it a thousand times before, I still think he made her blush!

Gratefully,

Tom and Hanne Stenehjem
