LB and Family,



We just learned of your Dad's death over the weekend. We express our deepest sympathies. LB, don't worry he has a good guy to show him the ropes, he may have to fight for the overtime though.

Dear Ellen and family,

I just learned of your Dad's death today. I'm sorry I could not be with you all at his Celebration of Life Mass.



I thought Lam was a lovely person. He had the wonderful ability to make you feel like he was one of your best friends when he talked to you. My family all sends their love and prayers.

LB AND FAMILY,

KNOW THAT YOUR DAD IS IN MY THOUGHTS AND YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY IN MY PRAYERS.

I CAN STILL HEAR YOUR FATHER'S VERY PLEASANT VOICE AND MOST SINCERE GREETING AS HE DELIVERED THE MAIL TO SPARKS STEET. I NEVER EVEN KNEW ANOTHER POSTMAN BY NAME, BUT YOUR FATHER WAS VERY DIFFERENT. IF WE ALL HAD YOUR FATHER'S WARM FRIENDLY SMILE, EVEN ON THE COLDEST OF DAYS IN OLNEY, THINK OF WHAT A BETTER WORLD IT WOULD BE.

GOD BLESS YOU.

When I was a kid growing up on Fern Street, Mr. Rebstock was my favorite mailman! Not only did he deliver earlier than anybody else, but he did it with style! I can still remember him leaping the porch railings between the row houses like a gazelle. He was a real gentleman, and always had a ready smile, for kids and adults alike. His service to Scouting is remembered fondly by every member of the Troop 109 and Pack 109 family. L.B., Frankie, and Bob, on behalf of Troop 109, let me say that our prayers are with you and your families.
