Dear Scott, Kimberly, and Aaron- my sincerest sympathies to you. I grew up across the street from your Dad and have many fond memories. Your Dad was always there to pay his respects, and it was especially meaningful when my younger brother passed away. Please give my condolences to Aunt Nancy who was so wonderful to us when we were kids! I am so sorry I couldn´t pay my respects in person since I am away on vacation! Cherish your memories!
Sincerely, Leigh (Jellen) Gwara
