Dear Noreen & Gerry, Bonnie and I are soo sorry to have missed the passing of your parents. We live in North Carolina now. Your parrents were very dear to me and certainly my fathers best friends.

I remember when we were little kids your Dad would come over to our house to watch the Saturday Night Fights on TV. We used to run around on the floor under the TV to distract them.

Dear Noreen and Gerry....You are the very best daughters ever. Your devotion and care to and for your parents was remarkable. You've given so much. Take gentle loving care of yourselves. You would make any parent anywhere so very proud. Blessings and peace to you always. Harvey Wolf

Dear Gerry and Noreen,

I'm so sorry to hear of the death of your mother. I have many fond memories of your mom and dad. They were close friends of my parents (Stan and Harriet Chytla).

Perhaps they have all rejoined at a reunion party in heaven.
