Dear Joel and Family,
I only found out 4 days ago that your Dad had passed away. Joe, we used to ride our bikes together many years ago, I lived near Bailey school and we would ride around the block over and over. We also graduated together in '77. I know you were close to him, your parents were very special people, they raised all you boys and your sister!! My thoughts are with you,your mom and your families...I am sorry this is so late in coming, but I moved to Pennsylvania shortly after graduation and I have lost touch with many of my neighbors and friends.

Micki and family,
Our memories are so wonderful of Daniel, mostly when we were all young and in school. He was such a joy to have him live with us when we were in high school. I have so many good memories of him as I am sure you all do. He will be missed. Love to you and the family.

To Shelly Mora & Family,
Our prayers go out to you and your family. I don't know if you remember me from living down the street from us on Mathews in the Brunswick area. I lost my Dad 20 years ago on Sept.28 and I think of all the joy we had during his living. Remember the joy your Dad gave you all. We moved away from Gary 20 years ago. But I never forgot you and still have a snapshot Stephanie Archie, Juanita White,you and I took in the snow in front of the old house.
