We love you Grandad and are going to miss you tremendously. This world won’t be the same without you.
My sincere condolences for your family. May your hearts be comforted in the future and may your memories carry you through the dark days. Joy comes in the morning.
Daddy, I already miss you so much. I always loved your stories and watching you interact with your grandkids and great grandkids. I’ll miss our talks about Tomatoes. I learned more about tomatoes than anyone ever should. Thank you for being the best daddy a daughter could ask for.
Bryian, Susan, and Matthew, I am so sorry for your loss. I know how much you’ll miss your dad and grandad. On behalf of your Pennsylvania family, we made a contribution in your dad’s memory and honor to the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society. I wish I could be there to give you all a big hug. Just know I’m there in spirit and sending my love. Barbara

With sympathy to Rosalyn, Becky and Wesley, Mark Bunt and Krystal Bunt
My sympathy to the family: Revelation 21:1, 4 and Acts 24:15 provides us hope through Almighty God’s promise of the time coming, when there will be no sickness and death and the possibility of seeing our loved one again. This along with reliance on God, can help grieving ones endure such loss.
My heart hurts daddy and I miss you terribly. I wasn’t ready to let you go and I can’t catch my breath. I know I’ll see you again but in the meantime, please know that we will take care of each other. Love you with all I am.
