Dear Bob,
We just heard and we're sorry we couldn't be there with you. Your Dad was such a nice man. He was kind and humble and I'm remembering in our Stop N Go days how helpful he was with his electrical expertise. The times we were at your house, it was easy to see that you and Cheryl were giving him a wonderful home. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Cheryl and your Family and Linda and Tony and Family. Love, Mort and Beth

My deepest sympathies on Leo's passing. I did not know him long, but I am happy to have had the chance to meet him. He seemed to be a content and gentle person, who loved his family and yes, Whispy too. You are all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. May he rest in the comfort of God and may God extent his comfort to all of you.
