I want you to know that I will always remember my Uncle Morrie as a warm and loving man. I will always enjoy fond memories of Uncle Morrie visiting our home on Sunday mornings where we had a chance for some great one-on-one time. My Mom has always cherished him, and I regret that I never got to know him better. I hope that the family can help support you Aunt Lakey during this very difficult time, and my wife Niki and I want you to know that we are thinking of you. (As is the rest of the family).

All our love,



Alan and Niki Fine

Scott,



I was sad to hear of your family's loss. I have nice memories of your dad.



Although I did get your message it was not until late friday. For some reason your cell phone was cut off.



I tried to connect with you. Call or write me when you can and we'll talk.



Please extend my sincerest condolences to your family.



Your friend,



Sam Baker
