Dear Janelle and family,
I never met your dad, or mom, but two of their many gifts were their daughters and grandson. Knowing Janelle, tells me that they must have been wonderful people. Good comes from good.

Never forgotten.
Janelle and Amber – these past weeks have shown what loving, capable women you have become. As you make your way through the next weeks and months, remember that you have a large loving family to lean on. We dearly loved your parents and will miss them a great deal.
Love,
Uncle Tim and Aunt Terri
My brother Scott will never be forgotten. He will be missed.
Scott, my brother, everyone will miss you.
If I were pinned downed to the most notable good time with Scott it would be his party the night of Neil Armstrong taking that first step on the moon back in the summer of 1969. That night was so much fun that I even forgot to go home and woke up the next day in this Upper Dublin home’s backyard recliner.
Thanks Scott for the many good times and memories.

Scott was in my life when I was a little girl, he was my mom’s boyfriend and I remember him very well. We lived in a big old farmhouse and I remember him giving me a turtle which we kept in the yard, but he escaped and I cried. Scott held me and dried my tears.
I’m 49 years old now but I still remember him, and his kindness and love. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. God Bless.
