Dear Jane, Bonnie and I would like to extend our deepest sympathy to you and your family on the passing of your Dad. My father-in-law passed away only a few weeks ago, so we certainly know what you are going through at this time. The photographs portray a very warm, thoughtful and caring Father. He will certainly be missed by all who knew him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Heather, my deepest condolences to you and your family in your time of grief. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Heather, Sorry to hear of your loss...we are thinking of you and your family during this difficult time. We are glad to have met your Dad back at the end of May at Maureen's party. He was a nice man and we can still see him sitting there with a beer taking in all the action. It was such a nice park and a memorable evening. And to think how awesome his setting is now!

Heather, Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
