Wendy and Andrew, Bonnie and Kathy -
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your husband, dad and brother. Wendy - I remember when Brian and I moved into our house - just a block away - and we would get together (especially at Fantasy Football time!) That was so long ago, but sometimes seems like yesterday. I'm still down the block from you should you need anything. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time.

Wendy and Family-
I was shocked to hear that Len had passed away; much too young! Although I haven't seen you for quite some time, Wendy, I will never forget the many memories we had growing up together. Friends not only share and remember the good, but also grieve with you, as I do, in your time of loss and sorrow. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. I trust God will give you His strength and peace.
Forever Friends,
Barb

Literski Family,
I was so very shocked to hear of Len's passing. Len and I go way back to when we were both managers at Wendy's restaurants (seems like 100 years ago!). Len would always have a smile on his face and always up for a good time! Everytime he left the store, instead of saying, see you later, he would say "smell you later"! That was Len or as we called him, "Lenny". You are in my thoughts and prayers during this most difficult time.
