Condolences & Memories (1 entries)

Pat, John, and Margaret For each of you and your families please accept my condolences on the death of your father and also of your mother so recently. I hope that you find comfort in the memories of them that span a lifetime. When I think of your parents, what comes to mind is that they both had such warm smiles and they always made me feel as though they were truly happy to see me. They were so good at keeping in touch and it was real pleasure to have known them both. Anne Cole - Posted by: Anne Cole (Friend) on: Jun 27, 2006
