Loretta, My deepest sympathy to all of you. He is going to be missed by everyone! But always remember that he is happy once again with your mom. He always knew where he wanted to be! I am truly sorry that I was unable to make it to the showing or services. We had family matters to attend to also which conflicted with the times and along with work being very difficult when trying to get away with being on vacation last week, very short staffed, and no overtime available. I just wanted you all to know that I have been thinking about all of you and I am sorry for your loss!
Sincerely, Teresa Staley

Dear Keith and Mary,

Sorry we were unable to come to the funeral home for your Dad, please accept our sympathy on your loss.

I didn't see the obituary until last night and Ed is out of town in Little Rock, Arkansas. We will be in touch once he returns.

Take care, you're in our thoughts and prayers.

Love,
Lee Ann
