Condolence: Eugene and family,
My heart is heavy for the loss of your dad. You and yours are in my prayers that time will start to heal.

Always,
Chris

Condolence: Kathryn and all the Smyths,

Our hearts break for you all on the loss of your loving and precious husband, father, and friend. You were such wonderful friends to all of us from the time you moved to Tariffville. Bill had such a quiet, reserved, and conservative presence that was so welcomed in that neighborhood group of LIFELONG friends. We have such fond memories of the intertwining of our families and will hold you all close in our hearts at this sad time of loss.
Love, Kevin and Sara (Sally Gabriele) Lempa

Condolence: Dear Smyth family, my deepest condolences on Bill's death. The Gabriele's and Smyth's history as neighbors, friends and extended family runs deep and long. It's woven through the fabric of all of our lives. While we have many happy memories from earlier in our lives (Bill playing with us in the pool and calling me a pool pest, for one), we have lots of lovely ones from our adulthood. Kathryn and Bill's visit to NM several years ago was a treat, and Bill was so relaxed and happy during that trip! I never even knew he liked wine until then...More recently, I treasured the frequent visits with Kathryn and Bill for espresso and pastries during the final years of mom and dad's lives. Hearing stories we had never heard before about his adventures when he grew up in NY - it was all very special....We enjoyed those times so much (Joan and I loved those visits), connecting with life-long friends and forgetting about aches, pains and worries for a little while. I'll treasure these memories even more now, and know you will treasure yours, too. Take care, my friends, and know that we're sending love to you all from New Mexico.

Condolence: To my dear Smyth friends (who really feel like family)--I'm holding you and Bill close in my heart. You'll continue to be on mind on Monday and afterwards. I'm so sorry I can't be with you for Bill's funeral. Sending love and hugs from Colorado.--Joan

Condolence: Our deepest sympathy to Kathryn, children and grandchildren.
