  1. Dear Alexandra and Family, Please accept our sincere condolences for the loss of your beloved husband and father. We, along with you, will miss a man who was a distinguished member of our community. We will always remember his love of his church, family and country. Steve and Heidi Psaros

  2. Tony, Neo, and families, I found your Dad’s obituary and wanted to express my deepest sympathy. There is no greater loss than that of a parent. My Mom just passed away last week. As we are trying to do, keep the good times close at heart with a sprinkling of the bad times for that is what makes us who we are today. Our prayers are with you. Walter, Gilda and Frank and families
