Jay, Ed and I just wanted you to know that you and your dad are in our thoughts during this difficult time. He was a cantankerous old cuss, but we liked him. Love, Aunt Terry
Dean was one of those guys who has ALWAYS been old. Whenever I saw him, he’d say “Hey you!”, and I’d say “Hey old man!” I sure liked him despite his…disposition. One time, I had a problem with my car, and he went out of his way to help me. I never forgot that. Now it’s up to the angels to listen to him grumble. Jay, Kim, Ray etc., you’re in our thoughts.
Phoebe: Sorry to hear you lost your soulmate. We always remember his stories from PEPCO and the lunch visit. Dean says “What are these grass clippings in the cuke salad?” Wonderful memories.
jay, all of you are in our thoughts and prayers. if there is anything at all you need please call.
Dear Mrs. Work, family, Kim, Ray, Michael and Chad, I am so so sorry to hear of Mr. Work’s passing. I just read the notice today as I was signing guest books for another friend who passed away. I’m sorry for not being more in touch (Kim). I will phone soon. Mrs. Work and family, please know that you will all be in my thoughts and prayers, and may God hold you close to Him and to one another. Be well, and with love, Kathy and Doug Rogers and Family
