Dear Scott and family. We are sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. May our Heavenly Father grant you peace through this time. Blessings to all of you.
We were honored to take Mr. Polito on the Heartland Honor Flight. Evonne and I are sorry for your loss.
I am so sorry for the loss of Uncle Gus. He is one of the most wonderful men I have ever known. I have so many fond memories of your family coming to our Columbus family on the 4th of July every year. What a great time we had. And our trips to Omaha to be with family – dinner at Mr. C’s. The ladies in heaven are waiting in line to dance with him! He is with his sweetheart, Aunt Annie.
We will keep your family in our thoughts and prayers.
A salute to Uncle Gus as we lose another member of our greatest generation, Condolences to a wonderful family.
