Vicky and family:
I was so very sorry to hear about your loss Vick. There is just nothing to compare to losing a parent.
I had no idea how much you looked like your Dad Vicky, I knew who he was the minute I saw his photo.
May all the good memories you have from over the years help you through the days to come. You and your family are in our thoughts today and in the months to come.
Love Colleen xxx

To the Crochowski Family, It was with deep saddness that we read of Joe’s death this morning. Both Joe and Mary are fondly remembered as wonderful people, caring, dedicated and with a great work ethic when they were part of our Emmanuel united Church family here in Windsor. We remember him well as both my husband and I grew up at Emmanuel. On behalf of our congregation may I express our condolences. Irene Alexander, Chair of the Worship committee

We were so sad and surprised to hear that Uncle Joe had passed away. We have some nice memories of him that we will forever hold in our hearts. We will never forget when we were just newlyweds and Uncle Joe invited us over for pizza. He will be remembered as a kind and gentle man and our children will know that they had an extraordinary great-great Uncle who led a truly extraordinary life. May God bless you and comfort you.

We were so saddened to hear of Joe’s passing–he was one of the kindest gentlemen we have known—our children will miss the werther’s candy’s and kind smile he was known for. We will miss his sweet smile and the peace that came being in his company. We were blessed to have shared a piece of this journey on earth with him.
