It’s been a pleasure getting to know you, my friend. Thank you for making my life easier by lending a hand at my home. I really appreciated all your help. You were always such a caring and knowledgeable man always willing and eager to make others’ lives easier. I am sorry I didn’t have a chance to say goodbye and give you a hug. Christmas Day will not be the same without you. You will be missed. Until we meet again. Love, Karen Serafine
Very nice and true tribute to Ward, Karen Serafine, my beautiful friend!
For 57 years we have been best buds who were always there for each other and you cannot ever be replaced. No one will ever know or understand everything we had or all we did together. Will be joining you again in awhile and we will start all over.
Love you my friend
Mitch
