    Aunt Ginny, Steve, Kathy and families; I was saddened to hear of your loss, Please know you are all in our prayers and that god does ease the pain we feel when someone leaves our world and joins him. I do wish we could have had more opportunities to share time together over the years. The family reunions were always fun and although maybe selfishly, I always enjoyed the times I was able to spend with the Kadars & the Cushmans when I was spending some of the best times of my early life with Grandma (Eleanore). He will be missed, Love & God Bless, Linda

    I could not have asked for a better grandpa. I am so fortunate to have had him in my life as long as I did. I miss him greatly, but will always cherish the memories.

    To the Cushman family – Uncle Clate was an inspiration and role model to me as I was growing up. I treasured the times we were able to get together with our families. My heart felt sympathies are with you all.
