Claudia sent me an email this morning to tell me she lost her husband, Al, the love of her life this weekend. She asked me to tell you all of his passing. He had Prostate cancer.

I know it's been a rough road for Claudia. Our condolences, dear friend. We're here with big shoulders to cry on or for relief with our humor.

Something like this leaves one feeling quite numb but I do know from our personal correspondence that Al kept a positive stance on his health and a desire to live his life as fully as he could with you.

May you and yours find comfort that can only come from Above.

Sincerely,

Ray & Penny

Claudia, I am just at a loss for words.

Please know that you and your family will be in my prayers and thoughts - this must be so difficult for you - but I think you know that you have an entire family out there in the form of LCT, sending you their thoughts, their love, their prayers and their hugs!

Agree with Denise, keep those wonderful memories close to your heart and like Kathy said, know that you have a huge amount of shoulders to cry on whenever you need it.

God Bless you!

Claudia, I am so sorry to hear this news. When you could not come to our MIMOSA event I got worried. I am so glad you and Al were able to have that wonderful barge trip with your good friends in France just a few months ago. I know they must be offering you the comfort you personally need at this time. Stay in touch, and know that we are all here for you.

Dearest Kathy,
Please thank our "family" for their kind thoughts and messages. You are all the greatest. I am truly at a loss for words ( probably ) the first time that has happened in my life.
