Please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss. Uncle Wimp was a huge part of my life and I always thought the world of him and loved him with all of my heart. I have the most precious memories of him that I will never forget. I have told stories of him to my kids. He was a great man and he will be missed greatly. I know that he is at peace now and not in anymore pain and has been reunited with grandpa and grandma and all his siblings. Again I am so sorry for your loss.

We are so sorry for your loss. Your father - Wimp, as we knew him was a good man and brother to our mom, Mag. He also loved his children and grandchildren very much. His face would light up when he talked about them. Please accept our condolences. Our thoughts are with you.
