Dear Mrs. McNamara, Paula, Scott, and Sarah, I am so sorry for the loss of Mr. McNamara. I have many fond memories of your dad throughout the years, and cherish how kind he was. I can recall there were a few times he carried me up the ladder to your treehouse so I could share in the fun. His compassion and kindness will live on in you, his legacy. Please know you are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Hi Suzie, Paula, Sarah, Scott, and Family:

A day never goes by that I do not think of Joe. I would not be the person I am without his influence during all the years I was blessed to know him. He was a wonderful mentor and more importantly, a valued friend. I will always treasure the time I was able to spend with Joe. I have tried to pass along to the next generation what he taught me. I hope you can find peace knowing Joe has returned Home to God who gave him life, and is now in a state of never ending happiness. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
