Parents, please know that I have sent a letter to the
daughters about this great loss.� Please take a moment
to make sure that they have received this information
and discuss it with them - many of them have not
experienced much loss in their lives or loss of someone
they are very familiar with. Dad Mike thought very
highly of each of our members, he was always ready with
a smile, a bear hug or an encouraging word�for each of
our daughters.� He was always positive and gave of his
time and talents willingly.

I
also encourage each of you to take a moment this evening
to remind your daughters of just how very much you love
them and how thankful you are that they are your
daughters. This should be a reminder to us of how
fragile and quick life is.
