Condolence: To my "other" family... Chuck, Becky, Tim, Don, Rich and Sharon. My friends, fellow heirs in Christ Jesus, and forever neighbors. God has so blessed us through family and friendship, good neighbor tidings and Christian fellowship. Please accept a heart-burst of love to you all, and my regret at not being able to join your mother's memorial in person. You know Mom (Mrs. Slager) would have it no other way than her children, graced with joy, continue to live the legacy she and Al so wonderfully fulfilled...and you all are! As Don said to me, "It's bittersweet". That is for sure, but joy comes in the morning! Love you all soo much.

Condolence: I was deeply saddened by the news of Aunt Grace's passing. I would like to extend my most sincere condolences to her family. I have such great memories of dinners in the basement of your house. I'll always think of her whenever I smell fresh baked bread or when I can pickles using a recipe she gave me so long ago. I regret that I wasn't able to attend the services for such a dear person. Please know that she will always be in my heart. She is now in the best of hands and hearts - God and Uncle Al.

Condolence: Don, sorry to hear about the passing of your Mother. While I did not know your mother directly I knew her thru you. For her to have given birth and raised such a great person - she truly must have been amazing. I was always told that the apple does not fall far from the tree. Thus the strong character and good spirits which you posses I can only assume were passed on from her to you. so, I am sorry that such a wonderful person has gone on to join your ancestors. You and your family are in our prayers.
