I happened upon this notice and my heart goes out to the family of Jerome Rickard. Though I do not know the family I wanted to convey my sympathy and share with you the thought from the bible that I look to at times such as these, Our heavenly Father Jehovah hates to see us in pain. A beautiful hope we look forward to is Revelation 21:3,4 where it promises that all those in the memorial tombs will come out. What a time of celebration when we will be crying tears of joy instead of sorrow. I again am sorry for your loss. With sympathy, Jo Edwards
Kerry, Lynn, Robin, & Gail, My thoughts & prayers are with you at this difficult time. As you look around, you will feel the love he gave & all the happy memories you all shared over the years. Pam & Gary
Kerry, Maggie and Brendan, We were sorry to read of your Dad and Grandfather’s passing. We knew that he was seriously ill because of a conversation that I had with Uncle Jim Harrigan last week. Our sincere condolences from all the Ernie and Evelyn Gates Family. John and Carol
Lynn, I’m so sorry to hear about your Dad. I know what a tremendous loss you must feel as I also lost my dad 3 weeks ago and my Mom 1 week ago. No matter how we prepare ourselves, we’re never ready to let them go. You’ve been a great friend to me and helped me through my difficult time and I want you to know that I will be there for you. Your father and my parents are all in a better place where there is no more pain. My prayers go out to you and your family. Your Bestest Friend Carol Randazzo
