Our thoughts are with you all at the passing of such a wonderful father, grandfather, husband, and friend. May your fond memories lift you up as you go through this most difficult of times. All our love from Florida. The Bowen family.
Our dear friend, we shall miss you. You always had a giant smile and a big hug each and every time we got together. Your generosity of sharing, your joy of living, your huge personality…made us all better people. How do we go on without you in our lives? I know, by remembering how you lived! Much love and prayers sent to the Locascio family.
For my one of a kind big brother, who will be sorely missed. He was the life of any party and he really enjoyed life. He was loved by everyone, and his family was the most important. Know especially mom is up there doing the happy dance, to have you with her and dad. Keep the party going, and all of us laughing. You’ll be in our hearts forever! Love you! Bonnie and Family
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this very difficult time. I hope that through all of the sadness, you will remember the little things, the quiet moments, the smiles, the laughter. And although it may seem hard right now, it will be the memories of these little things that help to push away the pain and bring the smiles back again. I will cherish every memory of Uncle Jerry and his zest and passion for life. He was a wonderful man and he will be missed by all.
Much love always,
Ann Marie, Tim, Brea, Bradley, Braedon, Bryce, and Brenna
