Mrs. Werner and Jill:

My deepest sympathy to you both and your entire family. I know it has been years since I have seen Mr. Werner but I do remember a very kind and caring man when I came over to the house to visit. He always had something nice to say and made me feel very comfortable at the house. It was also always very nice to see him at many ballgames. May you know that my sympathy, prayers and love are with you always.
Love Linda

Dear Mrs. Werner, Terrie, and family,

I was so saddened to learn of Mr. Werner's death.

I have such fond memories of Ray as a wonderful, caring neighbor. He was always so warm and ready to laugh. It was so good to see him and Mrs. Werner at my dad's birthday party in October. I have so appreciated the concern and care he has shown my mom and dad over the past years. Mr. Werner is such a part of my history and I loved him very much.

Please accept my deepest sympathy for the loss of your husband and father. He will be greatly missed by his neighbors and friends.

I pray for God's peace to surround you at this most difficult time.

Love,

David & Linda LaBorde
