Elsie,

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Weather was the only thing that could keep me away from paying my respects. If there is anything that I can do, don't hesitate to call me. One consolation is that Steve is with Terry talking telephones! Another is that Terry was spared grieving for a friend that he loved dearly! Please rest and take care of yourself.

Love,

Marge Connolly

Dear Nemeth Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. In all of my memories of Steve he's happy and dancing around the room. My mom sends her condolences. Because of recent surgery she could not attend the services.
