Daddy I miss you bunches. It still seems like just yesterday you were here with all of us. We will be celebrating Mom's Birthday in a few days. Can't believe she is going to be 89 years old. She has started telling us that she is going to be leaving us soon and joining you as another angel BUT hope you don't mind that we keep telling her NOT YET as you aren't ready for her yet. You still need more time to enjoy yourself. (That was a joke Dad) Miss you everyday !!!

Dear Aunt Olga and Family:

I was very sad to hear of Uncle Moe's passing!

As the oldest nephew, there are so many
happy thoughts and recollections.

Words cannot express the happiness he brought me throughout my life.

I was very fortunate to have him treat me so special when I was a teenager. I'll never forget him taking care of me like his little brother. We went to
many softball games.

The highlights of our getting together
for the holidays was spending time with
him!

He'll be forever in my thoughts and prayers!!

Love,
Lennie and Dorothy
