    Henry and John,

    Henry Sr. was a good man whose lifelong endeavors and personal interactions exemplified a meaningful, other-focused life that made a positive impact in the lives of all those he encountered. His earthly presence will be missed – the world needs far more gentle and loving spirits like his. He surely knew how much his family loved him due to your caring attention over so many years, particularly after Mrs. Erk passed away.

    A life well-lived by Henry Sr., and a job well-done by his loving family.

    Wishing peace and strength for all of you at this challenging time, and may happy memories surface amidst your sorrow. He is now at eternal rest, so no more worries or fears.

    Sincere condolences.

    Our sincerest condolences and prayers to your family of the loss of your father and grandfather. I am very sorry I did not make it to his visitation on Wednesday evening. There are many fond memories of your Dad from seeing him at the various events and activities of the German Cultural Society. He does not have to suffer and is looking down on all of you in eternal peace.
