    Caroline and Greg, and families! Condolences to you all at this sad time. I don’t remember meeting any of you guys, but I certainly knew your Mom and Dad, had many games of cards with them at the Sylvette in Florida. Your Dad always had a story or two to tell, which caused a lot of laughter at times. Keep your memories close to your hearts, and it will help you all get through this sad loss. God Bless you all.

    Caroline, my deepest sympathy to you and all others who loved your Dad
    I did not know your Dad really well but the couple of times that I did meet him in my youth, I felt a warm, gentle, authenticity about him.
    I am truly sorry for your loss. What a long happy life! But …reunited with your Mom is a beautiful vision.

    Greg/Caroline: My apologies for my tardiness, I only found out about your Dad’s passing today. Like your Mom, your Dad really was one in a million. I remember well spending time with him growing up – he always had a smile on his face and showed me nothing but kindness. Of course I can still picture him on his many endless walks up through Bay Roberts. I will always look back at my many conversations with him with fondness and as a happy part of my youth. All the best,

    Richard
