Tracy, Susan, and Scott: We were both so sad to hear of the sudden loss of your Dad. We will miss his voice in the choir on Sundays we visit with our Dad. He had a very special voice whether he was singing or just sharing a funny story at lunch. You are all in our thoughts.

So sorry to hear of your dads passing. The last time I was in Michigan I went to the What-not on Friday evening hoping to catch him, but I missed him. I regret that even more now.
He was always a gentleman and he will be missed. Definitely the end of an era. Take care and know how much he was regarded by all. Sincere condolences Tracy, Susan and Scott.
Linda and Pete Andriacchi. Take care of Molly!

Tracy and Scott: My heartfelt condolences at the loss of your dad. I have so many good memories of your dad. He and my mom graduated together from South Haven High. The last time I talked with him was at my dad's funeral. I remember my dad and him talking about all the fires they'd put out together. Your dad would leave fruit on our porch for my mom in the summer to can. Dad's are special and their loss is felt so dearly. May God wrap you all in his arms and hold you tight. I'm unable to come to the funeral so can't give you hugs. Consider your selves hugged right now! Take care. Mary

Your dad always reminded me of my dad - distinctive voice and they even wore the same cologne at one time! He will truly be missed.

To John's family,
We are very sorry to hear of John's passing. I met John 20 years ago when I began my insurance life and John was always a fun, fresh voice to talk with about how the insurance industry has changed. We will miss John's friendly face and warm smiles at our Christmas Party.....and I am sure it will seem a little empty without him here. May God bless your family and the memories you have a John. He will truly be missed.

We are sorry to hear of John's passing. He was a good friend and neighbor to to us on Beaver Island. I always enjoyed the short walk through the woods to visit with him. It always made me smile when I saw the light on in his cottage or when I saw him climbing aboard his pontoon boat to fish. He had such a distinct voice that we will miss.

I am so sad to hear John is gone. He was probably the nicest and funniest man in Glenn. I drive by his house on my way to mine and just last week he was there in his chair in the front window. I will always remember him!! XO Molly Miller
