Marge and family,
I was so saddened to hear about Hubert's passing. It sure brought back some memories. Your family was so kind and generous to my family over the years. Always a friendly face when you went in to Cable's grocery. Later, I had the pleasure of working with Scot when that same store changed hands. In one form or another, your family was a part of my life for many, many years. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you, both now and in the days to come. God Bless, Carolyn (Leonard) Williams

Marge, Phil, Scot, Karen and Karla, I am so sorry to hear about Hubert. Although it's never easy, I'm sure it brings you great comfort to know that he is at peace now and in a better place. I am comforted to know that my dad and his good friend are together. My thoughts are with you. Take care, Lisa (Stone)

I just wanted you all to know how sorry I am for your loss. I have many fond memories of growin up behind the store and bugging the heck out of the boys while they were trying to work. I lost my dad last September. And while it sounds like it may be a blessing for your dad due to illness, it still leaves a huge emptiness. God Bless, Marti
