Dearest friend, I’m really going to miss you. You were such a great example of love in the world. I believe we were always destined to be friends, we even had daughters on each other’s Birthdays. We were together 31 years ago as Debbie took her last breath and I know you missed her and then Jim every one of those days. Finally, you get to have a beautiful reunion. Hoping they have bingo in heaven! Deepest sympathy to the Novalinski family you have some amazing angels watching over you!

So sorry to hear of your mom's passing. I remember spending many ski bashes that she attended. She was a very sweet and gentle lady. I enjoyed spending time at camp with all 3 of her sons. They are all great people. Jim, Dan, Dave and family you'll be in our thoughts and prayers. May god put his loving arms around you at this grieving process and you find peace in knowing she will always be your guiding light and always be watching over you.

I wrote you a message from my heart via Messenger, Dave and Julie. But I have another one to share here: Your mother did a wonderful job of raising her boys because, Dave, if your siblings are as kind and respectful as you, she instilled that in your value system. If I can't get here in person, forgive me but Mother Nature has mean plans for Monday. My thoughts will be with you at 4 and at her church mass. I am wrapping my arms around you both with caring and sadness. Think about her every day as it will help to ease the pain and keep her memory alive. That helped me get through the loss of both parents.
