  I will miss you, Mrs. Dwyer. I will miss watching Andy Griffith & Everyone Loves Raymond with you. I enjoyed our laughs and talks about your children’s accomplishments and how proud you are of them. Also your stories about Bandit and your love for sports . I know you’re in a better place. Love you always 💓

Grandma you’re the best and a very loving one ! I enjoyed all the times together since I was a young boy riding around the house in my scooter to going golfing together at Arrowhead Country Club and watching you doing a special type of putt from the fringe “the grandma putt”

  Thanks for coming. Gma would be thrilled that you and the kids came.And I know she was gleaming with pride on our celebration of her life in her backyard. And Dad was right with her too! And I don’t think it was a coincidence at all that Mateo and I had a TRIPLE WAR!!!!

My heartfelt sympathy Tish, Carol, Steve, Tom and families. Aunt Helen was truly a fun loving and caring lady. Remembering the great visits when she and Uncle Bernie came to Dad and Mom’s for visits and camped out even the ball games in Rochester. Thanks for the great memories Aunt Helen I love you and will be missed dearly. Rest in peace.

  Thank you Darlene and family. Our visits to Canada are Mom’s best memories. Even tho her memory was fading she was always asking about Aunt Trish. Two angels gone to heaven free of pain just looking down on us with all their love. Thank you All for the beautiful flowers.
