Dear julie and Family,
I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your precious Floyd. Just think of him being painfree and laughing and smiling, and having a ball with his mom and dad, and also his brother Gene. At least he is at peace, which right now isn't helping to console you, but believe me, it does get better. Its 2 years since I lost my mom, and not a day doesn't go by that I think of her and remember good things that went on in our lives. May God be with you in this sad time. Believe me Floyd is in Very good hands. With sincere sympathy, Nick and Judy Chionchio (John Butzko's sister)

Someone posted this poem and it gave me some comfort and strength in faith and hope that a brighter day would come.

Death is Nothing at All...

I have only slipped away into the next room... I am I, and you are you... Whatever we were to each other, that we are still. Call me by my old familiar name; speak to me in the easy way you always used. Put no difference into your tone; wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we both enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, and pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without effect, without the ghost of the shadow on it. It is the same as it ever was; there is absolutely unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am waiting for you, for an interval somewhere very near just around the corner... All is well.

May God Bless Each One Of You.
I Truely understand how you feel

Floyd was a wonderful man. He was always joking around & making everyone laugh. He always joked around with my kids & played with them. They loved him. He was always good to me, and was like a father figure. I loved him very much. My prayers are with all the family. I have to think now hes in a better place with my mother not suffering, watching over all of us. RIP & i love you Floyd.

My Uncle Floyd was a great man- funny, sweet, talented- and he touched the lives of everyone he met. He was a shining example of a husband, father, Uncle, and a friend. He always made me laugh and he brought a smile to everyones face just by walking into a room. He will always be in my heart and in my thoughts.
Aunt Julie, Shawn, Jen and all of the rest of the Kline family - I am so sorry for your loss . I wish I knew the words to make the pain and sadness go away. I wish I was there with you. I love you all.
