Dear Kim and Kristina and family,
Wishing peace for you all in the days ahead. It's hard to find the words to express my sorrow for your loss.
Your dad was a larger than life, fun guy who always took the time to say "Hi". He made a funny nickname for Walker when I was pregnant...He named him "Jeb". It still makes me laugh.
As the days go on, I hope you find peace in his memory.
Lots of Love,
Angela (from Escondido Hills Plaza)
Dear Jan, Gary, Kim, Kristina and Family,
We were so saddened to hear of the passing of Tom. Like my brother Jim Puerner, we had such fun times and lots of great memories and being good friends growing up in our teen years on Montemar with Tom, Jan and Gary. Their parents were the best too.
Cherish the loving memories you have of Tom and how much he meant to others. Find peace and comfort in knowing how deeply loved you were by him and knowing he is reunited with Karen and his parents in Heaven.
May our Lord Jesus fill you with His Love to help you make it through this difficult time.
With Our Deepest Sympathy.
Diane Puerner Irvin and Audie Irvin
Dear Kimberly and Kristina,
I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of your father. I grew up on Montemar avenue with Tom, Jan and Gary. Your father was always a larger than life personality and someone, as a younger kid, I really looked up to. I have a lot of fond memories of playing dice baseball and whiffle bat baseball in the culdesac with your Dad and Uncle Gary. It was always a treat when I got to tag along on an adventure with your Dad. One specific memory was riding in the back of his Camero to the all-star baseball game. Your Dad played first base for the high school all stars and got two hits against Palomar College.
It's not surprising to read that through his life he was a friend to everyone and spread joy everywhere he went. That's the type of person I remember.
My heart goes out to you and the entire family.
Jim (Jimmy to your Aunt Jan) Puerner
