Dear Laura, Steve, Gary, Sandra and children.

Mischelle phoned me yesterday with the sad news. I knew your father (and mother) very well as we shared many summers at Portage WI. I am so sorry to hear of your fathers passing - this is a very difficult part of life to accept and yet we all know we must - sooner or later. I watched all of you and my daughters Mischelle and Nicholle really grow up together summer after summer and that is a memory I shall always enjoy. It was so good to see all of you at Mischelle's wedding a couple of years ago and see what lovely adults you have all grown into. My thoughts and prayers are with you all and may God speed your time of sorrow and healing time with his blessings upon you all.

Sincerely,

Grace McNatt: (Mischelle Grabner & Nicholle Manz's Mother).

Laura, Steve, Gary and Sandra:

I've known all of you for my entire life, you are my family too. I want you to know how sorry I am for the loss of your father. I will remember all the campfires, beer and fishing advice with your father at the river with a smile on my face and in my heart. He was a very special man and I will miss him greatly. Our prayers are with each one of you.

Love,

Mischelle and Kevin
