Missing you Dad. Just enjoy being with Mom again. Love you.

I am ashamed and saddened that my own health kept me from attending the services. In the 6-+ years I knew Uncle Leo I don*t think I ever heard him raise his voice. He always had a good word for my mother and our family. He was gentle and sweet and he will be sorely missed. I loved the sing alongs at your house, as well as his homemade birch and root beer. I love you all dearly,

Dad it still doesn't seem real that you're not here with us anymore but I hope you know how much we loved you. I would give anything to have you back and hear Hey Melissa fill my cup for mr me will ya, or give the kids a kiss and hug for me. I love you Dad and I know you're finally with Mom again but what I wouldn't give to have you here with me for just a little longer. Love and miss you, you're baby girl and Mother Superior, Melissa

I am so sorry for your loss. It is always so very hard to lose a loved one in death. God understands your loss and is near to all those calling on him. To all who call on him in truth. He hears their cry for help, and he rescues them. (Psalms 145:18), your family and friends have my deepest condolences.

October 13, 2016

My sincere sympathy to your family. May the God of all comfort be with your family in your time of grief.
