We’re missing you a little more each time we hear your name. We’ve cried so many tears yet our heart is broken just the same. We miss our times together things in common we could share but nothing fills the emptiness now you’re no longer there. We have so many precious memories to last our whole life through each one of them reminders of how much we’re missing you and the harmonica songs you played to entertain us and others at Donwood Manor.

Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Henry Pap Federau – 1933 – 2017.source
