Dear Clark Family,
Please accept our condolences on the death of your father/ grandfather. As you may know we lived next door to Stan and Mae and we can’t ask for better neighbors. Every year Stand would bring presents for my two girls Mari and Alysa. Also, during Halloween they would have a special bag there for them.
They were both wonderful people who will be greatly missed by all those that knew them.
I still use the old wooden ladder that I bought from Stan when he moved to the retirement home. I will think of him each time I use that ladder.
My sincerest condolences during your time of sorrow
We have had the pleasure of knowing Stan for over 25 years. He was and always will be a great person. He will always be in our thoughts.
We are very sorry for your loss. You are in our prayers.
I will miss the Pina Coladas and your crossword puzzles but most of all, I will miss our Alaska talks. You will always be in our hearts and minds in Alaska.
Love and Miss you!!
Terrill
68 years is a long family relationship; it’s all been great! We’ll miss your smile & jokes and the wonderful stories you tell.
