All of you are in our thoughts & prayers. I have memories of your Dad when I was a little girl. He always seemed to have a smile for me. You have been blessed to have such great parents.

I was working on some genealogy today, and learned of the passing of my cousin Wally, your father and grandfather. Wally was a prince of a man who always had a twinkle in his eye, a joke to tell and a huge heart. He loved my folks, Susanna (Aunt Sophie, and Uncle John Kennefick of Chicago, IL.) I also learned today of Rusty's passing in April 2012. I am so very sorry for your losses so close together. My heart goes out to you their children and grandchildren. Wally and Rusty were a real team who complemented each other so very well. I will remember them and all of you in my prayers.

Sincerely,

Susan Kennefick Kirtley (Urbana, IL.)
