Dear Ethel and Family Frank and I worked together many years ago. I was an inexperienced counselor and Frank was a mentor and role model. His ethics and professionalism were like a handbook for human services. It was clear even then that you and his family were his rock. My deepest sympathy to all of you.

Dear Carey Family, I was very saddened upon hearing of your loss. Having known Mike since kindergarten, I have always respected Mr. Carey as a caring and gentle man who was very supportive of his family and a sincere friend to all who knew him. He was a great role model and a pillar of Warren. I have many great memories as a child of times spend at your home and on the little league field. Mike, I am still envious of that homer over the swing set at the Child Street School field! Blessings to you Carey family and may your dad and husband rest in peace. Randy Tata Tampa, FL

My deepest sympathies for your loss. I hope you can find comfort in remembering all the special moments Bud added to your lives while he was here. My favorite word of passing are as follows: God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be, so he put his arms around you and whispered "Come to me". With tearful eyes we watched you and saw you pass away. Although we love you dearly we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest, God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best. My condolences.
