My sincere sympathy. Will be unable to
attend your funeral service as I don’t
drive that far anymore. Your family will
be in my prayers.
So sad at the loss of my brother, and father to a special niece. He was a very good man. Unfortunately, due to health reasons we are unable to attend the services. Our hearts and prayers will be with the rest of our family. Dean will be greatly missed, but is now in a much better place. Until we meet again, Dean. Love you.
Uncle Dean was the only Uncle I saw very much as a child. He was always kind. We loved visit Uncle Dean and Aunt Lil! He will be missed very much.
Being the only uncle I really knew, this is really hard to say goodbye for now, until we meet again. Love you so much and you will be truly missed by so many. My prayers go out to the whole family.
Our sympathy to your family. We enjoyed having the chance to visit with Dean a few years ago when he attended our mother, Alviera Randall’s funeral here in Ortonville. We will keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers.
