Dear Favior Family -
We are very sorry to hear about the passing of your father. He was a great man who always had a smile and a hello to share.
I know he and our dad shared many good times together at the "card room" and enjoyed each others company.
I'm sure it won't be long before their dealing out the cards in heaven!

Our thoughts are with you,
Kelly Pervine and the entire Pertler Family
