Dear Sherri and Reggie,
Please accept our heartfelt condolences on the loss of your mom. She was always a great and pleasant lady! I remember last seeing her walking the path in Bethlehem Twp! I sneaked up on her and surprised her, but she recognized me immediately, even though it had been years since she had seen me!
We are in Dubai visiting our son and his family until January 17, so we will not make the services. We will be thinking of you and your families.
Sincerely,
John and Janice Breidinger

Dear Wilson and McIntyre Families,
I am so sorry to hear of Aunt Thelma’s passing. I cannot thank you enough for welcoming my father (Richard Howett) into your family! He didn’t know his sister for the first 70 years of his life, but he knew her for the past 8 and I know that meant the world to him!
Thinking of you all during this difficult time.
Michelle (Richard’s Daughter)
