Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • Grandpa, I miss you and I miss my family after you died, and my mom died shortly later. Everyone left us too and did the thing you taught them not to, turn your back on your family! If you were alive I know you would be there for us! - Posted by: Tara (granddaughter) on: Dec 10, 2013

  • Sometimes on quiet mornings, and now and then on star filled nights, I get to thinking of all the days gone by. There are beautiful touching, happy and sad times when I find I have to turn away and brush a tear from my eyes. A tear that comes from a loving place where my thanks is so full that it overflows from having a father, like you. Love you, always Birdie - Posted by: Madeline Kelly (daughter) on: Jan 27, 2012

  • I was saddened to hear of the death of Jack. There are many memories I have of our times camping at Falcon Lake. My condolences to the family at the loss of a fine man. Betty - Posted by: Betty Unger (Friend from Falcon Lake) on: Jan 02, 2012
