Dear Arlene and family: I worked with you at Bishop and Burdett in the 50's. I lived in Cicero and got married in 1955 - my husband and I just celebrated our 50th anniversary and we have 5 daughters. Your last name just jumped out at me from the paper. So sorry for your loss. elaine vorreyer

Mrs. Heilingoetter and family:

From '77 to '97 (when we were both on the bench), your husband always wore a smile and had time to chat whenever we met. I will miss him, as I know you and your family will. My very deepest sympathy at your loss.

To My Darling Sister, Arlene

and to...

Jack, Karen, Robert, Lisa, Tom, and Gail .....

It is so hard to except what has just happened. However, He left us all knowing that He gave of his all...and I say He did it with "Class" and He knew that each one of you would pull together and always "do the right thing". All of you have "His Class"! He loved His family and was so very proud of each one!!!

His pain is gone now... ours is so pin sharp.

But in time .... we will all see

the light. Take care of each other, and especially my darling sister...who is going to need you more than ever before.

I Love all of you and share your sorrow as well! Love, Aunt Betty
