A beautiful soul is never forgotten. I only met and talked with Joe a few times, but I loved him. We had a joke about finding a good milkshake to enjoy. He will be missed.

I thank my brother Joe for being my valued mentor. I will miss our sports talks. Joe bought me my first baseball glove and a University of Michigan football helmet both of which meant the world to me. I will never forget him and Dot. Love, Ronnie

My Dad the greatest guy in the world. Always there when you needed him. I will miss working on the houses together. I remember the frist time he taught me how to put an electrical socket in. I asked him how do we know what fuse it was on. He told me to stick screw driver in it, I almost went across the floor. I look at him and said why me! He said now you can tell what fuse it was on because its blown haha!

To my DAD:
What can I say that I loved him with all my heart, and I know it was returned in spades. He would call me often and say how proud he was of me for all that I have accomplished in life as a woman. Dad was not a demonstrative person, but he constantly said before he died how much he loved us all. He knew exactly what it was like to be a Dad. He was always there when I needed him. He was also very comical. Once we went out to Carl's Duck Farm, a restaurant, and we had greasy duck so the waitress brought us a bowl of some sort of liquid. I said, "Dad what is that?" He replied, "You drink it!" As I was about to drink it, the waitress panicked and said, "Stop it is for your hands." That was my Dad a comedian. He was the one that always read us stories at night. I can still picture him in bed reading the stories and making all the voices of the characters in the stories like the 3 Bears and Goldilocks. I AM THANKFUL that DAD had all his faculties to the end. He was in charge of all his business dealings which most people at 90 cannot do. I love you Dad.

HAPPY FATHERS DAY DAD !
I miss you and mom. Taking care of you and mom was my greatest pleasure. Even though the last 22 yrs of your life was hard for me going from arlington to everett every day. Doing your finances and taking care of the properties. When you told me you were
tried of doing it and you didn't trust anyone else and that you and Mom where proud of me and my accomplishments, believe me my heart was gleaming bright. And the day that
you told me after Mom die that you only wanted to live with me and no one else because I made you feel safe, I started to cry and you said OMG I've never seen you cry and we both started to laugh. It was my honor to have you living with me.
I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU BOTH
