Dear Connie, Dianne, Pam and Debbie:

Having lost both our parents we know and appreciate the loss you are feeling. I wish we could have come to both services but time and distance will not allow it. Please know that both Arlene and I send our deepest condolences and sympathy in your loss and that your dad is finally resting peacefully.

With Gods Blessing

Girls, our heartfelt prayers go out to you. I know it's really hard to say how we feel, but we both have gone through it with losing our both our parents. He was our Uncle too and will be greatly missed. At least he is in a much better place now and out of his misery.



Love, Evie & Jay

Connie, Dianne, Pam & Debbie: I'm sorry to hear of the loss of your father but also realize the battle is over and he is in a better place! I have been fortunate to have worked with Connie over the last two years and have heard a lot about the family -- some very heart-warming and funny stories -- your father was lucky to have such a caring family. Both of my parents are also gone so I know the sense of loss and all the emotion. I'm thinking of you all. God Bless... Jeannie Tackman
