I was a classmate of Keith at Servite High School. Even though I have not been in contact in years, I want to offer my sincere condolences to Keith and his entire family. Both of my parents have also passed away, so I understand the sense of loss and heartache you may be feeling. I will keep the whole Dold family in my prayers. Your dad sounded like a really great guy.

So sorry to hear about the passing of your father. Stay strong, and know that even those you haven't seen in decades still care.

Our sympathies for the Dold family on the passing of Elmer Dold. Keith is a good friend of ours and he just informed me of his father's passing.

Dear Keith, Thank you so much for not forgetting us. Your father never did. Besides your father and your mother taking our family under their wing and aiding us in the in the inclusion of our mixed marriage into the Catholic Church, they never lost contact with us. Your father visited us about 4 years ago and we have kept contact via email & telephone after that. Your father has, and now always be an uplifting and comforting inspiration for the rest of our lives. Love, Jerry & Sonia

To the Dold Family, We are all sorry to hear of the passing of your father. I know my Dad Ray Romain is saddened by his loss. They all had such a close friendship throughout their lifetime with the card club and up until just a few months ago they still were able to meet weekly and play cards and then go out to dinner. I know Elmer is reunited with all that have gone before him and especially his loving wife Rosemary and My Mother Margaret. We are keeping you all in our prayers. He was such a honorable and great man. Blessing to you all, The Romain Family

To Uncle Ralph and all of my Dold cousins, My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. Uncle Elmer was a fine man, wonderful older brother to my mother, and admired godfather to me. I know he is now happily reunited with Aunt Rose. May they both rest in peace, eternally comforted in the arms of the Lord.

Ron, I will have you and your family in my prayers as you celebrate the life of your father. My very best wishes to all.

Dear Keith, and family, my heart goes out to all of you. May you all have loving memories of your dear father. And may GOD bless you all. With deep sympathy, Lisa Jordan-Foley

Tom, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time of loss.

Keith, My sincere sympathy goes out to you and your whole family.Thank you for letting me get to know your father, thru our friendship. We shared emails and sent each other Birthday and Christmas cards. He seemed glad that you and I were there to help each other. God Bless. Sylvia

Our sincere sympathy goes out to Mary Ellen, her siblings, and their extended families for the loss of such a kind, intelligent, and spiritual man. We will always remember Elmer lovingly for the special qualities he shared with those fortunate to have known him. Our prayers and love are with you all in your time of sorrow.

I can vividly remember visiting with Rosemary and Elmer at their beautiful home in east Detroit, it sure put a smile on my mothers face to spend time with the Dold's. thanks for the memories.

My grandfather, Elmer Dold, was the last of my remaining grandparents. I have fond memories of my other grandparents, George and Esther Sperl, as well as Elmers wife, my grandmother, Rose, all of whom passed away years ago, but I never shared the same sort of relationship with them as I did with my grandfather. Thanks to modern technology and the Internetsomething that wasnt as readily available during my other grandparents livesGrandpa and I were able to become digital pen pals, something for which I am immensely thankful for. There are lots of things I wished I wouldve asked my grandpa during our days of correspondence. For example, I would have loved to learn more about his time in WWII and how the events of that time helped shaped the person he came to be. I would also have liked to know how he managed to raise seven kids without going insane, especially when my mere two children have me pulling out whats left of my hair on a daily basis. His relationship with his late wife, Rose, was a textbook example of love and adoration, and was something that I recognized even at a much less mature age. I would have been curious to learn what he thought was the secret to a decades-long marriage. I remember hearing of how my grandpa marveled over the instantaneous nature of e-mail. It blew his mind to receive a letter from me from half way around the world mere minutes after I sent it. We would swap stories of what was happening in each of our lives. I would usually share harried tales of what it was like raising kids abroad, and he would fill me in on the ins and outs of daily living, never failing to mention his routine activities at home as well as his duties with the church, which he looked forward to eagerly. But regardless of what he included or left out, the one thing I could always count on from him at the end of each e-mail was a weather report. Without fail, I would get a forecast of the greater Detroit area. I knew precisely what was expected and how my grandfather felt about it, from grumblings about cold and snow to rejoicing over not-too-hot days. We shared a sort of kinship with the weather too, as my grandfather discovered that our two cities lay very close to the same latitude, which he found interesting. I won't get future weather updates from my grandfather, but theres a final question I feel comfortable asking him, even though I know I'll never get a reply: Hows the weather up there?

To Ron and the entire Dold family, please accept our very sincere condolences. Hopefully you can find a way to celebrate your Fathers life and cherish the time you have been blessed with. The McCarthy Family

Ron, my deepest sympathy to you and your family during this difficult time.

Dear Ron, I am sorry to hear of your dad's recent passing. My condolences to you and your extended family. From growing up on Rosemary Ave, I have many heartfelt memories of you and your immediate family in our youth in the 1960s at St. David school and parish. (Of course you recall Mark Pattison, Brian Pouget, Pat Wagner, Amy Yankitis on Kilbourne to name a few musical types back in the day.) In fact, it was through the "1972" Reunion organizing group that I heard about your family news today. I hope I get to see you on Saturday, July 12, however late it may be (because I am playing at a wedding at that same time) and hope there will be after parties we can attend with other St. David friends in common. Which brings up a thought: Might YOU be playing your guitar at your dad's Funeral Mass? Even for one song? I hope so! And I hope to hear you tell about it on July 12. Take care for now and may God Bless you and your family. Hope to see you again soon. Sincerely, One of yer ol guitar buddies, Pat SDS 1968 (8th Grade) EDHS 1972
