Mr. Seymour lived a long and gallant life. I pray that the God of Abraham comfort and support the family and relatives with the consoling peace described at Job 33:30: "To bring back his soul from the pit to be enlightened with the light of the living." My condolence, Sondra for the great loss, you will embrace your father, your friend again.

Our deepest sympathies for the loss of your father, Sondra, and such a special light in the lives of Michael, Jared, Max and Zachary. How wonderful that he made such an impact in his long life on so many of his loved ones. The heart broken open can only be grateful to move from sadness to joy. Our hopes are that you can surround yourself with love, friends and family to expedite this process. Let us know if we can help, Christine and Wayne Ferrari
