February 17, 2015 at 12:11 pmDear Joe & Jimmy, and family,
We had no idea that your dad was ill; sorry to hear that. Your Dad and Mom were very good friends. Arnold worked with your dad in the banking business for several years going through all the mergers with other banks. Your mom was a special lady who June enjoyed very much. Sorry for you boys to lose your parents; they were good people and I’m sure wonderful grandparents. Our deepest sympathy to you and your family. Thoughts & prayers will be with you.
