This family has been such a big part of my life in so many ways for so many years.. Every single one of them have showed up for me when I’ve needed them at different times in my life. Through good times, and bad health they’ve all been there. I can tell you they are strong, they are mighty, they are family. Sending you all the most love. Rest in heaven Paul. Give Rosa the biggest hug. We’ll miss you.
Dear cousins, We love all of you and are saddened by this news! Please let us know if there’s anything we can do for you ! ❤️
You have all been such a wonderful part of my memories. Before I left to go to the Army, I came up to see you, Ruth was still with us and we had such a great time. I am so sorry that Cousin Paul has left us. Please know how much you have always meant to me. Aunt Marie was always a big part of our lives too. God bless each of you.
My dear friends. I am so sorry for your loss. I hope amongst your dad’s passing that you find peace,and although tough times may overwhelm you in the days to come, I hope you find happiness in the memories. Sending much love and lots of hugs. ❤️
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. May the special memories you made together help you through this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Sending Big Hugs and Love to you all.
Pam and I send our heartfelt condolences to the entire Yerke family. Remembering the good times we shared at family reunions on the Yerke farms.
I still remember all the family get together stuff we did when we were all alot younger. I will miss being able to see Paul even though it was not as often. What a beautiful video.
I have great memories of our family gatherings,
especially the ones at grandma and grandpa’s
lake cottage. They were memorable times.
I’m so sorry for your loss. The video was a
beautiful memorial for Paul.
you will be missed. We loved you. I hope the best for you. i know how hard it can be to lose a parent. There are times when you don’t get a chance to think about what you want to say. You might be given the news of someone’s death in a conversation or over the telephone. Finding the right words to say right there and then can be perplexing. It’s not possible to put yourself in the bereaved person’s shoes and understand what they are going through. However, we all know that it’s much better to say something than say nothing at all. Whatever words you choose won’t take away the pain they might be feeling, but they will go a long way toward helping them feel your love and support. Choosing words of sympathy is not something to take lightly. The best advice is to say something simple, show empathy, and speak from the heart.
