I am so sorry for your loss. My mom and dad moved to Spring Lake in 2017. My mother passed in 2020 and my dad in this past September. I wish we could have met up. Thinking of you and your family.

Dear Carol,
I was very sorry to hear about your father´s passing. While I didn´t know him personally, reading about his life made it clear he was someone who lived with purpose, integrity, and deep commitment to family and community. It´s easy to see those values reflected in you and the way you lead your teams. I hope you´re able to take some comfort in the memories you shared and in the legacy he leaves behind. Please know that my thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Joe Henninger
