May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

June 11, 2018

I'm so sad that I will not be able to see you again Uncle Tony. I will NEVER forget our last visit together and everything we said to each other. Thank you for being such a wonderful uncle to me my entire life, a Great Uncle to my boys and being that special "Unc" to my husband. We have so many fun and warm memories to talk about.

I'm sure you'll be celebrating you're 80th birthday with your heavenly family. They've been waiting to see you for some time. While I'd rather have you here, I take comfort in knowing that you are free from pain and at peace now. And I know you'll be watching and protecting all of us over here. Lord knows, we sure could use it. Until we meet again, I will remember that robust laugh of yours.

Sending lots of hugs and kisses your way!

Love and God Bless,
Laura Jean

Im so sorry to hear about your loss. I send my deepest condolences. May the God who "binds up the brokenhearted" and "comforts all who mourn" strengthen your family during this difficult time (Isaiah 61:1,2)
