Not sure what to say?

Dear: Mrs. Melkert and family, my prayers are with you and please accept my deepest condolences. I only met Ted once or twice and that was when he came to Rockway school, where you Mrs. Melkert were my first grade teacher. I am not sure if you remember me but that was years ago in 1979-80, but yes I recall him coming to the school one day. My thoughts are with you and I hope you have the strength to hold on to the memories and to support one another during this difficult time. Zahida Khanani

To our dear friend Susan and family. We are so sorry to hear of the loss of your father. We truly understand your grief and have felt the heartache that you are feeling now. We know that suffering is not a great way to live life but none the less we miss them so terribly. I think of both my parents so much and the emptiness is filled with love and warmth of family and friends. Miss you Sue and thinking of you so much. Take good care and our love goes out to you. Diana, Dave, Leigh and Ross

Dear Susan, Bunny and Nancy. Thinking of you all as you celebrate the life of your dear and beloved father and husband. Praying that you will be comforted with many precious memories! Love Pam xo

Susan and family. Although I haven't seen Ted is quite some time I do remember his great sense of humour and love of his family. Hold the wonderful memories close to your heart and he shall remain there forever.
