  1. Hey girls,
    This doesn’t seem real at all. We were just doing this with Mag. What is going to get alot of people through your dad’s death is he loved his wife very very much. He could not live with out her, (and he didn’t). He knew it was time to be with her again he just couldn’t live anymore without his sweetheart.(or his Frow). So be strong and know that he is where he wants to be with our mother. I love you girls and we will get through this and know they are both watching over us.

    Love Michelle Stevens Hare

    I feel terrible about your father but I know he is with his dear wife, Margaret as he wanted.Just want to say how sorry I am that I could’nt talk with him much because of his condition. I loved him very much and I hope he knew that. Also I am so proud of you girls for taking care of your Dad as well as your Mom all those years. You were sure a blessing to them both.
    God bless you all.

  8. I am so sorry to hear about Charles, and also sorry we never kept in touch. His mother was my daddy’s sister. I never knew her, but I did Uncle Otto, and several of the sisters. My daddy worked with Uncle Otto in Washington, DC many years ago. I am truly sorry for your loss.
