Dearest Mary,
I am so sorry you lost your Dad. But you know he is so happy to be with the love of his life now. You have your Mom and Dad's blessings, because they could not have asked for a more loving, devoted, wonderful daughter. God Bless you always. All of you are in my prayers.

Dearest Jennie, Mary, Joe & Rich & families:

Our hearts and prayers are with you today, tomorrow and always. As I think back to when I first met your parents, I had graduated 8th grade (so many years ago) and how wonderful they both were. Your father will always be a special part of my life's memories as he was a wonderfully caring and loving man to whom family meant the world to him and so much a part of our extended family. The memories of sharing special times with him during family gatherings and in Wisconsin will always be treasured moments. May these memories you have of him be your comfort in your time of grief for he is not gone, he is just away until we meet again. May God comfort you and give you strength during this difficult time.
With deepest sympathy and love,
Joyce & Jim Walschlager & Family
