Mike, Lisa and family,
My heart goes out to all of you. I am sure it feels like a piece of you is missing…much love, Jackie and family.
During one’s lifetime the hardest thing to accept is losing your PARENTS or a CHILD. Just remember that one day you will all be together ; but for now remember all the good times you had together. Your MOM & DAD are now together in a better place. Your MOM is hitting jackpots on the slots & your DAD is drinking his coffee on his porch watching all the trucks go bye. Our LOVE, PRAYERS, & CONDOLENCES . Lynne & H
Dear Mike and Lisa, You have our heartfelt sympathy on the loss of your father. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Love you both. George and Barb
Pam, David, Daniel & Mike,
First of all, I need to say that all of you are the most incredible son’s & daughter ANYONE could ask for. I have witnessed love, devotion, & acts of selflessness throughout my 11 years as part as the “Riddle family” beyond imaginability.
Loosing a parent is heartbreaking & I’m so sorry you are going through this. I’ve been thinking of your Mom the most over the past 24 hours. She must be elated & excited beyond words that she is going to see “her man” again. It feels my heart with joy for them! Thinking of that, might help the “process” a little.
I Love you all,
Lisa
Mike and Lisa and Family, I am so sorry for your loss. I have heard so many great memories from you both and your love for your father. You have been a wonderful son and daughter and I know he is looking down lovingly. You and Lisa have gone done so many things to let both of your parents know how much they are loved. Love you both Linda & Rob
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal and love leaves a memory no one can steal. We know this is a difficult time accepting the loss of your father for it brings back memories of losing your precious mother. Your parents were great together and raised four loving children that stick together during difficult times. Over the past 10 years our family has grown to love Mike and we count our blessings every day that he LOVES and takes care our little girl Lee Lee. Your parents were great role models and taught each of you good work ethic and how to love. The pain is gone from Mr. Chuck and now he is with his partner for life. We know you will miss them dearly; however, they are together forever. Quote: “No one really dies as long as they took the time to leave us with fond memories”
