To Dan, Terry and the whole family, I am sorry for your loss. May your treasured memories comfort you at this time.
- Bud HalpinIt's sad to see another of my Mom and Dad's good friends pass on. I can picture him sitting on one of my parents' kitchen chairs in the living room before or after a bowling night with Dad. Always a wry smile and chuckle from him. Laughter seemed to surround him.
Fond memories!
My thoughts are with you all.
Especially Mary Anne and Terry.
Farewell my Godfather.
Bowl some strikes with Mom and Dad. Sip on a beer and celebrate a life well lived.
