Mrs. Devitt and Karen, I was so sorry to hear about Mr. Devitt. Please accept my sympathy. I remember how fondly my parents always spoke of him, and the family and stopping by to unexpectedly say hello when you lived in Merrillville. I have great memories of Credit Union events we were fortunate enough to attend. May you be comforted by your faith and happy memories. Eternal rest grant unto him, oh Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.
