Dear Mrs. Salter, Steve, Scott and Mark:
I never had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Salter; however, Steve and I have been friends for more than 10 years. He speaks of his Dad often and I almost feel like I knew Mr. Salter myself. It is obvious how much his children love him, which is quite a testament to his character in itself. Sandi and I will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.

Shirley and Family: We are very sorry to hear today about Charlie passing. He was always a pleasure to work with, very knowledgeable, very understanding of others, and a joy to travel to the tool builders with. I will always remember going to Sheas with Shirley and Charlie. It was a lot of fun. Charlie will be sadly missed by many, many. Walt Tanger

Mrs. Salter,
I was so sorry to hear this news. Mr. Salter was always so kind and welcoming, and I know that you will all miss him.
When my father died, someone told me to think of the pain like a tribute to the love. After some time passed, that began to be a comforting perspective.
I'm thinking of you all, and especially of Mike, because I'm sure he's with his father now.
Love and peace to you all.
