My Dearest Nancy, Valerie and family: My heart cries out for you as does Jesus' at this very difficult time as you come to terms with the loss of your husband and Dad. He touched so many lives - what a wonderful legacy he is leaving behind. Valerie, the twinkle of his eye and smile in his cheeks which lights up your face. will be a constant reminder his memory will always be close in heart, as his love for you and yours for him were so apparent. Nancy, you put that smile and twinkle there as you so sweetly loved him through all aspects of your life together. Be comforted in that you are not alone, as he is now in the loving arms of the Father and Jesus at peace and you will see him again as you know and love and hold onto his son Jesus who loves you more.

God Bless My Sweet Friends,

ROBERT POPOVICH
