Dale I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your father. I remember you and our days at St Pius, fondly. You look like your dad's twin! He went to heaven on my mom's (would have been) 95th birthday. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God bless and comfort you.

My wife and I were priveleged to visit and bring Holy Communion to Mr. Bancroft at Grace Care.  Later, we prayed a spirtual commnunion when he was on liquids only.  He was such an inspiration.  He never complained about anything and was grateful for the full life that God had granted him.  We will miss him.

Dale, I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your father.  I know you and your family will miss him greatly.  
With sympathy, Joanie

Loving grandfather, faithful friend, guide of wisdom, eternal love! Paw-Paw, thank you for all of the years, the beautiful memories, and all of the love you so selflessly gave. The incredible story of your extraordinary life and your commitment to your family remains, and your legacy lives on in each of us. I miss you already, but we shared a beautiful relationship and such a special bond while you were here that there are truly no regrets. We shared all the stories, spent that real quality time with one another, and told each other just how much we meant to one another on a regular basis. With that I find peace, because it outlives death and carries us through until we are reunited on the other side. I know when we meet again, whenever that day maybe, I am sure to find you waiting for me with loving, open arms, those bright blue eyes and warming smile, right at Heaven's Gate.  As your new life and endless journey begins, know that you served us so well, and in my heart is where you remain forever young. I love you, and am forever grateful to you for making my world a better place! Rest in peace and know you are always in my heart!

Boots and family:
Sometimes words do not come easy but thoughts and prayers and fond memories are with each of you during this time. Draw strength from each other during this difficult time.

To the Bancroft Family--Our prayers are with you--Our Mom and Dad--Maggie and John Rummel used to "work" with yall at St.Theresa' Church. God be with yall through this sad time  Linda Reid

To Aunt Boots, Bernard, David, Dale, Michael and Jancie, I am very sorry for your loss. I remember your dad as being very quiet and kind. He didn't make as many trips to Toledo as you all did, so I didn't know him very well. But I do know how hard it is to lose someone you love. You will all be in our prayers. ~~
