Aunt Mary, Jeffrey, Christine and family,
So sorry for your loss of Uncle Warren. I am so glad I stopped in and visited with you on two of my visits back to PA. Uncle Warren was so funny about his attire that day and it became an little joke between all of us. He is with your other special angel, Nanette. May you all find comfort and peace through each other and your memories. You are never alone, God be with you. Love you all!!!
