Bill and Debby,
So many fond memories of your dad and mom together over in Medway and in Indiana at Crabill reunions. Your dad was warm, friendly, approachable, and loving -- even as a little girl, I was drawn to him.  A long, well-lived life is a great, great gift.  You are in my prayers and, and as I type, and pray I  notice that it's the exact time of the beginning of the funeral. 

God Bless, 

Morna  (Crabill-Comeau)

Bill: Please let me repeat how much grief it brought me to hear that your Dad had passed away.  He was a game fighter and a great friend as well as a beloved relative. He and your Mom were  always loving and receptive to me and my family.  They were among my favorite relatives.  I remember your dad from before his Coast Guard days, his concentrated studies to gain his CPA rating, and his days as business manager of the Daisies.  When he and your Mom visited Washington years ago, we had the pleasure of showing them the town and joining them in their visits to their congressmen and senators as well as the special ceremonies they attended. We visited them in Florida and Fort Wayne whenever possible. They will always be in my memory.
I know that your Dad, and Mom as well, considered themselves blessed indeed that you were able to support and comfort them in their declining years.  You were a model for us all in that regard.
Though it is little comfort, I know, you have all my sympathy, and Mary's as well.

Debora,
It is clear from this tribute to your Dad what a wonderful person he was throughout his life.  You are also clearly his child. I know he was very proud of you just by knowing the person you are. You and your family are in my prayers. Love, Polly

Everyone at FPHI is thinking about all of you and your loss.   I only spoke to him twice and never met him but it appears he was quite a strength to his community.  I know he will be greatly missed.     Earl Fox

Indeed. Hail to The Chief! You were loved by many and you will be missed by many. Rest in peace, my friend.

Bill,
I am sorry to read of the passing of your father.  He is truely in a better place.  He accomplished a lot here on earth and I'm sure will be missed.

Bill was married to my father's cousin, Helen.  I really cannot think of them separately . . . a wonderful couple, so devoted to each other and to their children.  "Fine people" describes them, perfectly.  I loved Bill and Helen . . . memories of them will live on forever.
