Gloria and family,

I was sad to hear of your dad's passing from Mark.   I was glad to have been able to meet and correspond with Uncle Donald after my dad Howard passed  in 2018.   Your dad was very kind to me which I so appreciated during the difficult time I was dealing with.   My dad had always talked about him fondly and proudly and I'm sure they are all in heaven catching up now.  

I know how difficult the final journey can be and my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

My thoughts and prayers go out.  My mother now has her big brother with her again.  I remember my mother telling me how Uncle Donald use to walk her to school making sure she got to school safely in Detroit,  When he went into the military how worried she was.   When ,y mom past away from cancer, he said if I was OK and would call me to see how I was doing.  I wish would of known and talked with him more.  I remember all the crazy stories my mom and dad told me growing up visiting Uncle Donald and Aunt Eva.  I looked through my moms pictures and have crazy funny photos of time spent with them.  I remember what my mom said and get it now.  She told me always tell the people that you love that you love them.  Even if you are angry or mad at them.  Spend time with them because one day they won't be there.  I can honestly say my parents and Uncle Donald was the best generation.  They grew up in depression and war.  I will not never forget Uncle Donald.  Another angel in Heaven.

He was a good man, husband, father and a patriot.

Dear Mike and Family:
I know your Dad had a big life, as Mike has told me many stories of his family, while flying together at Jet Linx. I know the last weeks and months have been hard on all of you, as it is so hard to see someone we love so much, slip away to such an illness. Thoughts and prayers to all of you, from the Hawker Crews in Fort Worth. 
Rick Kienle, John Zazakis, Reid Frank, Bob Tidler

Sympathy to Gloria, Michael and Donnie and their families .  I remember visiting with my folks and Michael when your dad was stationed at Ft Benning GA, decades ago, then the last time I saw your dad and mom was when they came and visited my mom in the hospital in 2007.  I know they were all waiting for him  when he arrived.  The six Lepek kids are together at last.  
God bless.
Susan (Leslie) Rowe

Mom and Grandma Lappek have been waiting for you on the other side.
