Our deepest sympathy to Nancy and family. After all the years, as friends and neighbors in Lombard, we came to know Nancy's dad as a wonderful, caring husband, father and grandfather. Nancy, may you always be comforted knowing that your Dad rests in God's loving care.

My deepest sympathy to Jim's family. Your mom & dad were my upstair neighbors for almost 15 years and were truly the nicest people I knew. I use to tell them that they were my guardian angels because they always looked out for me. They would tease and joke and always be smiling even though they were going through some tough times too. Jim was gracious enough to sell his unit a little over a year and a half ago to my older sister with strict orders she was to keep me in line. (Like I said always looking out for me.) I will forever treasure my memories of Jim and Lorraine for all their kindness and friendship. Love, Rae
