Henry and Mary,



Lar is out on a case and couldn't attend this AM. I am so sorry I was also unable, but know that you have our support and prayers. I'm sure you have great memories of your Dad and that's the best thing. All our love and thoughts.

Dear Henry and Mary,

I just want to send my deepest condolences to both of you and to your entire family on the passing of your father. He was a wonderful man and will be missed greatly. The Pechloff family in St.Louis will keep your family in our daily prayers during this difficult time. May the Lord watch over all of you as he welcomes his brother Hank into the kingdom of heaven. Peace be with the entire Palmisano family.

Dear Steve, Anne, Vince and Phil,

I was so sorry to hear your news. Steve, your dad was a great man. I always enjoyed talking with him when he would come to a school event. He will be greatly missed but the memories he left behind will keep him in our hearts forever.

You and your family will be in our prayers. Mariann, Bob, Megan and Annie Reilly

Jackie & Tom,



We just read about Henry's passing and wanted to give you both our deepest sympathies. May the memories of his life keep him always in your heart.

Henry, Steve & Tom,



I would like to express my deepest sympathy on the passing of your father. I have nothing but fond memories of being a young boy coming to the southside with my dad to pick up minnows for our store. Your dad was always kind in my eyes. I would like to think that our fathers were not just competitors, but that they had a friendly rivalry of sorts. Old bait dealers are a diminishing breed. I hope that you continue to progress in this industry that our fathers laid the ground work for. You guys continue to be the Class of this industry. Our deepest sympathies.
