Dear Susan,

In loving memory of a wonderful friend...

No words can say how much he is missed.
He made a difference to so many of us...
just remembering the incredibly, ridiculously funny and brilliant statements (stories) he told, to deep and sobering truths; and his willingness to lend a hand (up to his neck).
It all brings a smile to me.
You're often in my thoughts,
Sláinte,
Barbara

May the good Lord continue to give you the strength to endure this loss.

Please know that you will continue to be
in our prayers and thoughts.

Love,
