Nana,

I am so sorry for you all for the loss of such a wonderful, strong, and caring man.  You and Bump always made me feel like one of your own, and for that I will be forever grateful.  John, myself, and our children were so very, very lucky to have had the chance to know and love Bump.  He was and will always be someone we all aspire to be like, just like his son Grumpy.  You gave to us 2 of the greatest men we have ever known, and I feel so blessed that we got the chance to have them in our lives.  Wish I could be there with you... please know that I'm thinking of you and love you dearly.

Love,

Joanie

To Aunt Nancy,
My prayers go out to you and the family.  Wish I could be there for you.  There are so many happy memories of you, nana and Uncle Johnny all laughing together.  I will always keep that in my heart. I know God will give you the strength to go through this difficult time.  I'm sure mom and nana have welcomed Uncle Johnny into their arms.  Love you.

To My Dear Grandmother Nana,

My heart breaks for you Nana.  Bump was the most amazing grandfather anyone could ask for. He was such a strong role model for all of the Leitner Family.  My children and all of the great grandchildren were so blessed to have had Bump in their lives.  We will always love Bumpy!  He is now in Heaven with an another amazing Leitner, his son Kenneth.  I know they will both be looking down on us from Heaven! 
God Bless You Nana!
