Dear Uhl Family,
Mr. Uhl was a kind wonderful man. He was a good friend to my parents, especially our Dad, Ted Comeau, who passed away in 1998. May he rest in peace.

We loved Arthur, he was the best neighbor ever. He will always be remembered.
In Memory
Those we Love remain with us,
for Love itself lives on.
Cherished memories never fade,
because a loved one is gone.
Those we Love can never be,
more than a thought apart.
For as long as there is a memory,
they'll live on in our heart.
