We are going to miss you Al. You had a laugh and a smile that made everyone around you feel comfortable. Always the first one to offer help if anyone needed it. Our standing Friday night fish fry will not be the same. But, we will be comforted by the thought that you will be sitting next to us laughing and watching over us. Please save us a place at your table when we need it, friend.

Dear Karen and to all of your extended family, It is with great sadness that we send our condolences. We often feel so detached since we live so far away and can not always be at family functions but we can never forget Allen's wonderful smile and friendliness. He served his country so well and he loved his family so dearly. He was a great man and a wonderful person. He will feel no more pain and may he rest in peace in the arms of his parents and siblings in that next world of unending comfort. Our love as always and ever, Aunt Rose and Uncle Buz and family in Arizona

Karen & family,
It is hard to believe that forty some years have passed since we stood with you at your wedding in the Utica Church! Please know that Mike and I will be holding you and your family in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
