"Theirs to many I miss you mom"
"Kim, Chris and Jeff, Chris and I both send our deepest condolences and prayers to you and your family on the loss of your Grandma/Mom. May the memories you hold dear help heal your heart at this difficult time. God Bless you all. "
"Rose and Henry were two of the first people I met in the Salvage industry. They always treated me like I was part of their Family. Rose would always laugh whenever I would call and speak with Henry. I will truly miss her, one of the very best people I know."
"I knew Rosie from grammar school. She was at our 50th anniversary from St. Ann's. After that she would always be at Kay's once a year. I didn't know her that well in school because in those days they separated the boys and girls. I got to know her better at the recent reunions. She had a super personality and a great sense of humor. She would always talk about her wonderful family and of course the business she'd been involved with most of her life. My condolences to her husband and family. The world is a better place because she lived in it."
"My Deepest condolences to the Lemire family."
