Dear June,
I know that Jason already signed for us, but I too wanted to send my deepest sympathy to you, Linda, and your family. Jason and I have such great memories of living next to you and Vince for the 3 years that we were there....from sharing my soups, to buying Vince's quarters for laundry, or as Jason said just sitting around chatting. Thank you for such sweet memories! When we make it up there again we will be sure to stop and say hello.

Again, we are so sorry to hear of your loss, but we have hope through Christ, that we will one day see Vince again!

Until we see you again, take care!

Sincerely,
Sheila and Jason Gibbs (& family)

Vince,

It was a blessing to have known you. You and June were the best neighbors anyone could ask for. From the exchanging of meals, to just relaxing and chatting. As I get older, I realize life on earth is just a quick introduction. We're blessed to have met you, and can't wait to see you again.

June, my deepest condolances. Next time Sheila, the kids and myself get up that way, we'll stop by Valley High. God Bless,

Your neighbors from a distance,

Jason, Sheila, and the kids.

Dear June: We have known you and Vince for about 26 years. During that time, we never had a disagreement, and you were both so pleasant to deal with. Our sympathy to you and Linda and your entire family over your loss. I shall personally miss seeing Vince and chatting with him at the Lamplighter. Such a good man...we can be sure that he is now with his God in paradise. God bless you
all. Tony and Doris Koss
