Michael, I don’t know if you remember me or not (one of Wanda’s daughters)but just wanted to say how sorry I am to hear of your mother’s death. I always thought a lot of Aunt Edith and always heard from her at Christmas up until this past year. My deepest sympathy goes out to you as I know you will miss your dear mother.
Michael, To you, your wife, and family our sympathy and thoughts on the death of your mom. She, as well as your dad and your grandma, were always kind and loving people. I often think of the many good times I was fortunate enough to share with you and with them. She lived a full, happy and holy life. God bless you and yours. A friend forever. Love, Jim “Rollo” Paul and family
Mike, My sincerest condolences on the passing of your mother. I hope you are well, otherwise. I’d love to hear from you some time. Condolences, Sandy
Michael; I was sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. While I did not know her personally, I am sure she was a fine woman, based on the son she raised. Hope to see you at the next reunion. Gary
Please accept my sympathies on the passing of your mother.
Palo, My sympathies on your mothers passing. I will always have fond memories of both of your parents. We sure had some good times (great parties!!). I was in Florida last week on business so I wasn’t able to be there. Keep in touch. Denis
Palo, You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this time. I have many remarkable memories of your sweet Mom and how she shared her love and kindness with all of us. It was great to see that she was living near (or with) you in her final days and I am sure serving the Lord til the very end. Our love to all, Freddie Salancy
