Howard and family, my condolences on the passing of your father. Many good childhood memories playing on Maple Street.
Dear Jerry,
I am sorry to hear about the passing of your father. I met him a couple of times, and he seemed like a great man. I’m sure he was very proud of you and your accomplishments. Life goes by so fast. The past we cannot change, the present is a gift, and the future is promised to no one.
