Dear Bill and family,
I was so sorry to hear about Myril. He lived at the CLF in Arlington Hts. with my cousin Sandra. He was a sweet man. He was blessed to have such a loving family.

Bill and Patti,
My memories of Myril will be with me always. From the time your mom took care of my brother and me when we were kids and we spent so much time at their house on Melrose, to the weddings at which Myril was my favorite dance partner. I will always remember him so fondly. The way he called you "brother," Bill, and how he used to love his beer in his younger days. He lived a full life. What a sweetie.

Dear Bill & family,
I'm so sorry to hear about Myril. He was loved by all of us and he was always such a happy guy. He was very lucky to have such a loving brother like you who loved & took such good care of him all these years. It was obvious how much he loved you. My heart goes out to all of you at this
sad time.
Love,
Annette
