Grandpa, I miss you and think about you every day. I wish I could have gone down to Florida but we still have Marion in common :) You knew how to make every holiday memorable and I will strive to live the way you did. Love you, Gina.

Dear Zdenka and family,
We send you our deepest sympathy on the lost of Stanley. He was a classmate of Ray's at Morton High School. The last time Ray saw Stan was at a recent Morton HS Reunion. Sadly, the obituary was printed in our paper the week after the funeral, or we would have given you our condolences in person.
May God comfort you all in the days ahead as you celebrate Stan's life and what he meant to each of you.

My Grandpa was the most generous, kind, loving man I know. His family always came first. Thinking of you Grandpa, and all of our childhood memories. I will never forget the time Andrew shot your bb gun in the basement and covered it up with your dart board. :-) I will see you up in heaven Grandpa. I love you so much. Please watch over me and your great granddaughter Savannah.
