Thank You

To our dear family and friends,

It’s been a little over a month now since dad’s passing. Born 11 February 1937 and left us on 11 July 2026.

On behalf of our entire family, I want to express our deepest and most heartfelt gratitude to each of you who stood with us during this incredibly difficult time.

Thank you to those who attended my dad’s wake and funeral service. Your presence brought us comfort, honored his memory, and reminded us that he was deeply loved by so many. Seeing familiar faces, hearing your stories about him, and sharing in those final moments of tribute meant more to us than words can fully express. I met relatives and friends of family that I never met before at dad’s funeral and met those that I had not seen in decades. I wish I had seen them during happier times, but I will remember this as dad bringing us all together. 

To those who offered prayers, whether in person, over the phone, or through messages, please know that your spiritual support has been a source of strength and peace for our family. Your kindness has helped carry us through these dark days.

To everyone who reached out with calls, texts, cards, flowers, food, or simply by being there to listen and hold our hands—thank you. Your love and compassion have surrounded us like a warm embrace when we needed it most.

We are especially grateful to those who helped with arrangements, coordinated the service, prepared meals, or offered any practical or monetary support. Your generosity allowed us to focus on honoring Dad and being together as a family. Though we are heartbroken, we are also deeply blessed to have such caring people in our lives. My father was a man who valued family, friendship, and kindness—and through your actions, you have shown us that his spirit lives on in all of you.

Please accept our sincere thanks from the bottom of our hearts. We will always remember your love and support during this time of sorrow.

With love and gratitude,  ❤️🙏
