Papo, 

I miss you. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I called Omi yesterday, and I wanted to hear your voice on the other end so badly. I wish I would have had a wedding ceremony so that you could have worn your uniform like you always said you would; and I wish that you could be here to meet your great grandchildren whenever that time comes. I trust you'll be with us, your family, even if we can't see you. I hope I become as genuine and kind as you always were, and that one day I can make an impact on people the way you have done. You are so very missed. Thank you for always being there and doing so much for me. You are the best grandpa any little girl could dream for. I love you with all of my heart. 
Your loving granddaughter

Dear Dad....May you Rest in Peace knowing that your 3 Daughters ( Tina,Connie & Kimberly),6 Grandsons and great granddaughter will be continued to be  supported and comforted by our wonderful mother,grandma and great-grandmother.

Mr.Nitch always greeted me with a bright smile and friendly conversation as I delivered his mail for the past 8yrs..when my daughter left for bootcamp and joined the Navy, Mr.Nitch assured me she'd be just fine and not to worry,he was right..he made a positive impact on my life 5days a week ...Thank you Jim..rest easy,you will be missed.

Jim was one of the most genuinely friendly customers that I have known as a U.S. Postal Service letter carrier. I looked forward to delivering his mail and hearing his kind words. Through this, we discovered that we had both been stationed at the same tiny U.S. Army fort in Maryland, albeit at different times. It was one of life's ironies that we would meet in person, and I look forward to our next chat.

Always a smile and a wave as he drove by. He will be missed!  Marion Thorsen

My heart is  knowing I won't see Mr. Nitch everyday.... walking the dog, checking the mail, having our neighborly chats!
 Repeatedly telling him to stop feeding my kids those delicious GERMAN CHOCOLATE EGGS with the tiny toys inside ☺ 
I'll never forget what great times we had swimming in their pool as kids!....how kind hearted he was! 
I feel truly blessed to have had the privilege of having him in my life! He was more than just a neighbor he was family! We love you!
