Dear Cassie and Dale,
Years have passed since you used to come to our after school for a while after your mother passed away.
We lost track of you after more time passed. The passing of your dad at such a young age was an unwelcome
surprise to us as well.
We share your grief and trust that the Lord will be with you and give you peace and contentedness.
Love,
Pat and Paul Drexel

Hey there my old buddy of 48 years, it seems our paths have crossed numerous times over the years, each time we did it was as if we just saw each other yesterday. You always had a big smile and happy greetings for everyone you met. You lived your life as free spirited as earthly possible not by getting what you want but by enjoying what you have without any jealousy toward what any other has, rather you shared in their good fortune by celebrating with them. You had it together much more than most could see. Until we meet again Goodbye My Friend, Steve Nemith
You are a true free spirit now!
