    I was saddened to hear of your father’s passing. I admired his independence, his kind heart, and beautiful smile. He always had a “thank you” to give and I appreciated being on the receiving end a few times. My heartfelt condolences to his family.

    We are so sorry for your family’s loss. How precious to have your father and grandfather with you for so many years. The first time we met Joe after he and Haley started dating, he talked with fondness and admiration of his grandfather’s sharp mind, his strong faith, his service to his country, and how his mother and her siblings had made sure he was well cared for in his later years. May God give you peace and joy in knowing that he is home with his Father in heaven.

    Pat, Midge, Robert, I’m so sad to hear of your fathers death at 99 yrs. What a wonderful life and what a wonderful father. I feel honored to have known him and your Mom in years gone by when I’d spend time at your house on west main. Pat, you and your sister Midge and brother, Mike are so fortunate to have your father way into his 90s and almost 100, and such a wonderful father he was. Your Mom and your Dad will always be in my memories and in my prayers.
    My love to all of you, Jeanne
