Dear Sandy and Phillip,
We were sad to hear of Cornell's passing. We will always remember his friendship with Bob (dad). We also remember your hospitality when we first moved up north from southern Illinois and spending New Years Day with Sandy, Cornell and Phillip.
Our thoughs are with you.

Dear Aunt Sandy and Philip,
We will dearly miss "Uncle" Cornell. He was an inspiration for me in many ways and I have a treasury of wonderful memories of him. May you be comforted by the hope that we will all be re-united with all who have departed this life in the Kingdom of Heaven.
God grant him rest with the saints.
With love,
Fr. Christopher Calin

Dear Mrs. Cotosman & family,
I had a wonderful conversation with Mr. Cotosman at the Vatra this summer. It was the first time I had been back to visit & enjoy a conversation with him in 30 years.
