To Corliss - my deepest sympathy on the loss of your father. He seemed like a most wonderful man. My mother still is in St. Peter's parish and she often gives me news of my old classmates. She actually ran into Lindsey Schuh yesterday at a church function and Lindsay said she wished she had known your father passed away sooner as she would have been at the funeral too. I'll keep you and your family in my prayers.

I'm so glad I got the opportunity to know this very special man. I always enjoyed visiting with him. It was so much fun when he came to Texas and visited Gail's school...everybody loved him and he met EVERYBODY! I know his family will miss him... and so will I.

Clarence was such a cute little man. I am glad that I had the chance to know him the past 20 years at the dental office. He made growing old look good. He will be missed.

To the Gangelhoff Family,
My heart is very heavy as I read the news of your dad's death. He was a wonderfully delightful man that I loved and looked forward to seeing every time I was at 4:30 mass. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. He will be missed.

"A smile is a curved line that sets things straight"

Uncle Cleg always had a smile for me and a hug. Sometimes he got teary eyed remembering the past, but that's ok. I always looked forward to the Christmas card and note that he never forgot to send out to me, and it meant a lot. It's was hard not to think of my dad "Heg" whenever I would see him, but it was comforting to know that he was there for all his family, who loved him so very much. Peace, Terri (Gangelhoff)
