To Judy and Family,
So sorry to hear of your loss. You were one of my most memorable patients when I was an OB nurse. I was there for a couple of your deliveries. You both were such a great couple – so funny too. Then as time went on, our daughters became high school friends and she has fond memories of your family as well.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this challenging time.
Sincerely,
Rhonda Steigerwald

“Let not your heart be troubled; ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions. If it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” John 14: 1 -3
God Bless and Keep You,
Lou, Susan & Bethany Slautterback
Gina and loved ones — so sorry to hear about your loss. I think Jack was one of the best big-brothers of all of our friends. He always told us, in a nice way, when we were screw-ups (which could be quite often). I remember Jack always smiling, in that way he reminded me so much of your Ma. Jack and Frank Vendetti are gone way too early. I’m so sorry for your family.
