Our deepest sympathies and condolences to Terry and your family for your loss.
Ruth Hayward and family
We will always cherish memories of our oldest and dearest friend…..camping in grandpa Herb’s timber, the shenanigans of our youth, cruising the back roads, being each others’ best man, campfires under the stars, falling asleep in the duck blind, tallying Walleye in Canada and great weekend get aways. We already miss your wry sense of humor and will be forever grateful that you were such an important part of our lives.
Deepest sympathy to the family on the loss of your husband (Terry), your son (Betty) and brother (Susan)
I was and always will be proud of you for serving in the U.S. Navy and all the years serving many years as a police officer. Our conversations when I was in high school helped lead me to want to serve in the Navy as well. You made a huge impact while you were here.
We extend our sympathy to Kerry’s family. Please know we are thinking of you at this time.
