Carol Tepatti wrote a sympathy message

“Char and family, Prayers of comfort and heartfelt sympathy are being sent to all. I can remember many cards being played by Mom and Dad and Char and Tom. There was always laughter and good times had by all. I recall a trip and some story about a stone hauled back. We enjoyed many fresh caught delicious fish from Tom. I will always remember Tom and his big smile. Heaven is gaining a kind and fun man! Much love, Carol and Randy Tepatti”
