I am so sorry for your loss. I know how close our parents were and how my father would tell us about his conversations with Herb. May you be comforted among the mourners of Zuon.

Dear Cousin Celeste and family,
I was sorry to hear of Cousin Herb's death. My parents were always fond of him and on the occasions that I had the opportunity to meet Cousin Herb, my memory is of a dignified gentleman.
As far as family, I also have such fond memories of Aunt Leah. We just uncovered some documents about the Oriole Department store listing Uncle Manny as a manager of one of the departments.
May you be blessed with good health and beautiful memories of your husband, father, and grandfather.
