Jeff, Jake. Justin, Josh and Jeremy. And Becca! Our sincerest condolences on the loss of your father and grandfather. May you take comfort in the fact that he did not go before his time and lived a full life given his circumstances in Poland. God gave him a second chance, and he used it to his fullest.

Love
Lee, Ro, and Max

We were so sorry to hear of your Dad's death. We have so many wonderful memories of times spent with both your Mother and Dad and of time spent at the cleaners at Bishops Corner, just talking. Please know that our thoughts and deepest sympathy are with all of you, and we hope that being surrounded by loved ones will get you through this very difficult time.
