Dear Heather and Carolyn, I'm sorry for your loss. You all were such a close/closed family that we didn't understand, I know we weren't close but that doesn't mean we didn't think of you and wonder how you were getting on! I hope you get through this sad, difficult time for you. Cousin Fern

Heather and Carolyn: there are not enough words of consolation to ease your broken hearts!! But together you made your Dad’s final days so wonderful. I got to know Dad through Mark and then there was our Whole Foods connection with Pat K. He would always come through my register when checking out. My best memory will always be how he called me “Dear” whenever he saw me!! I am so happy I stopped by Panera 2 weeks ago to see him! Again I am so sorry!!
