Deepest Sympathy to you and your family Laurie. My prayers are with you at this difficult time.
We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.
Laurie our thoughts and prayers are with you. Take care to you and your family. Rita

Our heartfelt sympathy to you, Olive, and your family.
Ken was a great friend and a shuffleboard player that we admired greatly. We will miss him both around Clearwater Shuffleboard Club and the Sterling League.
Dear Olive and Family,
Please allow us to share your sorrow. We have so many fond memories of Ken and will miss him greatly. He made us laugh with his stories, our favorite being about the “elephant”, as well as the tale about his auctioning of “salt and pepper shakers”! We shared his Ohio home state and loyalties.
Our hearts go out to you.
Love, Loche and Dick
