Message: Coral,
I'm so glad I was able to visit with Myron & you in December. As I remember Myron I think of Mom (Jeanette) and realize that we are so lucky to have these two beautiful angels watching over all of us and in my heart I know Mom was there along with Grandpa Mahler & Lawrence to greet Myron when he made it to Heaven. You will always be in my prayers.
Love Sandy

Message: Rest in peace Whitey
he was a man who worked outside
enjoying the sun
he had that 'mahler humor'
always ready for some fun
he was a friend to many
he would give you his last one
but most of all he was the man I loved like a father and he loved me like a son.
