Dear Blanca, Vivi, and Joannie,
I was so sorry to hear that your dad has died. I first met Punky when I was 7-8 years old and he was barely a teenager. Your Auntie Alice brought him to our home to meet my niece Patsy, who was then just a baby and later to become Alice's goddaughter. He was, even as a very young man, one of the nicest, kindest people I have ever met. Although it was sometimes years between meetings, he always had a hug, a smile, and a kind word.

I will remember you and your family in my prayers.

Blanca,Vivian, Joanie and family. So sad to hear of the passing of your father. I will remember him fondly. He reminded me the most of our grandmother. Hope to some day see you girls again. Sincere condolences, Cousin Rosie

My heart goes out to your family. The loss of a love one is a heartbreak that others may not fully understand. Yet, God recognizes the pain you are experiencing and keeps track of your tears as if collecting them in a bottle. (Psalms 56:8) Rely on Him for strength during this difficult time. My condolences.
