Good morning,

Here we are hon, another birthday without you. Words cannot express what not only me but for your family & relation still here to share this day with you.
The days here go by so rapidly. 
The world is in chaos and as for the United States the one you lived in is changing & going in reverse. The happy days we grew up in no longer are shared or enjoyed by anyone anymore. Politicians are making sure of that.

I know that you are with our other family & relatives to fill in for me for you today. Until then!

Love,
Bill

Mom Reichert,

   It is hard to comprehend that it has been 9 years since you departed to touch the face of The Lord. Tracey and I miss you so very much, but we still feel you looking down upon us. Know that your light still shines in your daughter whom honors you each and every day by being a most courageous woman and the finest wife a man like me could ever hope for. Please say hello to my Dad; Grandma, and Grandpa for me... tell them I miss them also along with the rest of my family in heaven. I have your carolers set up and ready for you when you visit... you are always most welcome... especially at Christmas when we feel your presence most. 

Love Always,

Howard and Tracey Rohrbach

Hi Nanny. Happy New Year. It's been over 8 years since I've hugged you. Nothing is the same without you. I love sharing your love for gift giving. I can still see your face every Christmas as you sat on the edge of the chair and leaned forward, excited to see me and Tony open each one of our gifts. Each year someone would be given the wrong gift because you couldn't find their name on the package. I miss that laughter so much. The past few years, things have changed pretty drastically, and my heart just really hurts recently. 

You would love to see the young lady your great granddaughter is becoming. She got her senior photos taken yesterday. She bowls like you did. She was 6th in the county last year and has gotten awards for her bowling too. She has her first boyfriend. He's a really nice guy so far. No one will be good enough for her in my eyes but I'm ok with him.
She got accepted into college already. She wants to be a therapist and help people through the hard times in their lives. You'd love her personality. She's the best of all of us. 

I almost got married in 2018. But I didn't want to make the wrong decision and risk losing my daughter in the process. So we all had an interesting/fun vacation instead. One day I'll be ready to go down that road. Trying to focus on getting debt free and buying a house for now. Life has a way of not going the way we want or need it to so that's been a bit of a challenge lately but I'm staying positive.

I love you, Nanny. I miss you so terribly much.

Hi Mom R...

   It has been 8 years since you left us, but Tracey and I continue to keep your memory. Especially around this time, we keep Christmas alive just as you did; your Carolers are here with us, and I feel your presence whenever I decorate/rearrange them. Please continue to watch over us; you would be so proud of Tracey, she is an unbelievable woman and a wonderful wife... more than I deserve. Thank You for her. We both love and miss you very much.

Love Always,

Howard and Tracey Reichert-Rohrbach

Mom it is eight years ago today we said goodbye. I miss you more with each day. I am trying to make you proud of how I am honoring your memory and you would be glad to know I am helping people as I always dreamed at work. I have a wonderful man who loves me. Till I see you again, know you aren't ever far from my heart and thoughts. Love your daughter always, Tracey.

Miss you Mom! I'm pretty sure the last thing you think about there are birthdays! But just know we're all thinking about you. You'd be so proud of Caitlin! She is really doing well bowling, more importantly, she is a precious young woman with a good heart. She is going to be 17 this year; wish you were here to pass on some of your wisdom!

Love you always!

Happy Birthday Mom R! Not a day goes by that we do not fondly remember the time you spent with us here. Things are not what they used to be and times are tough, but Tracey and I are holding our own and continue to watch over Dad as promised. You'd be so Proud of your daughter Mom... She is Strong; a wonderful and loving person, whom takes great care of her family and friends, and is a loving wife. Thank You for her. We miss you. Say hello to my Dad, Grandma and Pop, and all of our loved ones who keep you company in Heaven. Until we all meet again...

Hi Hon,
Once again another year has passed on by. You are so very missed. Not only by me & family, but by so many of both yours and my friends & co-workers.

As for the status of how things are here, getting much worse for the average person by the day... You would be so upset with how it is getting here for everyone except the politicians. Well, until later, please pass along my love to all there with you.

Love Always,
Bill

Hi Mom. Seems not a day goes by without me thinking about you, missing you, wishing we had more moments together, your surprise visits, hugs, everything. Really wish you could see Caitlin bowling! She has gotten so good! And she's grown into a beautiful young lady. She bowls just like you, almost the same form. Her high score so far is a 266! She's had a number of 600 + series. We're doing well - as good as possible despite ALL that has hit this family over the last few years. Miss you! Love you still!

Good Morning Hon,
I can't believe that is has been 7 years. Time here no longer has any resonance nor meaning anymore. There is always something going on. And It's not been good either. Tracey & Howard have been having various issues/problems... but seem to be doing well considering. I had a bout with Covid. Hope it's over. I have to believe that the biggest surprise I have given you recently was to have a met a very wonderful & caring woman a few years ago. Jodi Jacobs is her name. I had asked her to move in with me in April 2021. We get along so very well. She too has a very close & loving family.
So on November 7, 2021 Jodi & I got married here in front of immediate family. It was a very small & short ceremony. I know in my heart that you would really like her. 
Well will you please pass along all of my love to all in heaven for me.
Love Always,
Bill

Hey Mom R... As Tracey said, lots going on down here. We miss you and hope that you are at peace. As you know, this past October, Tracey and I were married. We both felt you were there. That day was the best of my life and I will work hard so that there are many more ahead. Say hello to my Dad, Grandmom and Grandpop and all of our loved ones no longer among us down here. Please keep checking in on us from time to time... Tracey especially could use some Mom Hugs from Heaven. Love, Howard

Happy Birthday Mom Reichert,

   I am doing my very best to watch over Tracey and Dad for you... I will not falter, so rest easy. Thought of you yesterday when fondly remembering asking you and Dad for permission to date Tracey... I was never so nervous in my life! It's been a few rough patches travelling on this road here on earth, but Thank You for Tracey(and Dad) whom make it worthwhile. Had a close call in the hospital; my heart was weak, but I've been given a second chance. Say Hi to my Dad for me... please tell him I met his brother's son for the first time... and that he looks so very much like him. Please tell my Dad, My Granma and Pop I miss them... and beloved family no longer present... I will see you all someday. Tell Pappy that he'll have to stand tall at the gate alone for a little longer... I'm still needed down here. Tracey misses you so very much... as does Dad. I want you to know I keep your spirit alive in our home with Christmas every day... come visit to see next Christmas... I PROMISE you, it will be Grand... no matter what. I guess what I am trying to say is I miss you too. Tracey and I hope that someday this Fall will be our day... Please visit often... You are always more than welcome. See you again...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY,

Love, Howard

Good Morning Hon...

My Happy 81st Birthday wish to you. 
Can't believe that it is going on 7 years since we shared our lives together.
As for how things are here with a change in our Political Arena, we are going in reverse. The Democratic Party has now control of both the House & Senate. You would have a difficult time as most of us are...

The Covid-19 Virus is still creating havoc on the population here & around the world. We are all slowly receiving vaccinations locally in hopes that it prevents us from getting it. It has killed many... attacking those mainly with serious medical issues & the elderly. The clock keeps on ticking..

Will be checking in again later,

Love,
Bill

"Hello Hon!"
Another year has passed since we were together. Six years... just so hard to comprehend... The time goes so slow.
Things here aren't going very well. I can just imagine what you would say to all that is currently happening.
The U.S. is going in reverse. Politics is corrupt. On top of that we are in a crisis mode due to a Covid-19 Virus. Restrictions have been placed upon most citizens in all of the 50 States. Quarantines limiting daily activities, travel, etc. 
Enough of that!

The family misses you very much as do I.

Love always & forever,
Bill"

Hi Hon,
It's been a bit since I stopped on by to visit you.

But today, I took this opportunity to visit,.. (while under quarantine) which I just needed to do. 
Not really sure what happens to each of us when we pass, what we then are able to know about... maybe you are aware & just perhaps not.. Any way... this is what has recently happened..

A Coronavirus Known as COVID-19 which originated in China at the beginning of 2020, crossing across Europe & reaching the USA in late February of 2020.

It is killing many around the globe and it has started killing here. Last USA total Death Count here is at 17,820. Consequently the USA by a Order from President Donald Trump .. all USA citizens are to live their lives by social distancing. Mainly we are all requested to minimize travel, etc. 

But I needed to visit. I so very much miss you! And always will.
Until the next time I stop on by,
My devoted unwavering love,
Your husband,
Bill

Mom Reichert, it has been 5 years since you left and I just wanted you to know that you live on in our hearts and minds each and every day. Dad has graciously bestowed upon me your Carolers which make every day special and keeps your Christmas Spirit alive all year long. Tracey sure has your Love and skillful Decorating talents, and I cannot tell you enough how grateful I am for her and Dad in my life. Tracey is the Love of My Life and I am sure that when you are looking down from the stars, your smile and Love for her brightens the Heavens. Dad is a true Joy, and we are truly blessed to yet enjoy his company. Please say Hi to my Grandma and Grandpop for me... and my Dad among all my other family and friends I look forward to reuniting with one day. Until then, Merry Christmas Mom R...

I do not possess the ability to truly express how much you are in my daily thoughts and dreams. But it's all I reflect upon.

I love you with all my heart & soul. I always did & always will.

Stopping on by as I always do... “Hon”,
54 years ago on this date … we did the very best thing. You & I committed too and did in our lives! We “tied the knot” to which we promised to love & honor each other through eternity together. Our married bliss endured for 49 ½ years. You “Completed Me! We shared so very many unbelievable & fantastic experiences & memories. We raised two great kids who we both loved who are very devoted. 
They are exemplary kids. They have significantly contributed to our society for which I praise you for your sincere guidance & direction. I credit you for this so very important responsibility as a very devoted and caring parent.
Somehow along the away, at the age 65 you got Breast Cancer and life for you changed drastically… 9 plus years of surgeries, scans, chemo treatments, biopsies’, blood testing, etc, were unable to cure and stop the inevitable. (I & all our family were so helpless @ unable to help to ease your pain & suffering). But we tried the very best we could.
The worst Time Ever (for both of us)!
But God had other plans for you Hon. He knew whom are the very best to select. You are such a kind & loving person to join his heavenly staff. I only wished that he would have allowed us more years here on earth to share our lives together. 
Your passing was without doubt, absolutely the saddest time in my life. You just can’t imagine. 
We spoke often as to if what would we would do in regards as to.. “Who of us would pass first”.
So here am I. I so wished it would be reversed.
I will fulfill your wishes to ensure that both our children will have been taken care of and looked after.
This was my “Promise” to you. I will honor this promise Hon!
I love you so very much! Until I come to be with you…
My sincere love Hon!

Your partner in life and through eternity,
Bill

Carole Anne Reichert

March 14, 2019
Carole, my dear loving & caring wife, was an Angel here on earth. 

Her life was totally devoted not to herself but all others.  Family, relatives, friends and co-workers.  This applied as well to our many neighbors that we had as we relocated on several occasions. 

Carole & I were so looking towards our retirement so that we could do some of planned things which we put on hold to raise our family.  However, God had other plans for her.

The life & times for Carole were not very good after her retirement in 2003. After two years into it, she was diagnosed with breast cancer in December of 2005. She had a mastectomy in February of 2006 & from that point on she had a very difficult time. She struggled with all types of medical & dental issues. i.e. chemo treatments, brain & bone scans, numerous trips to the hospital for one thing or another all related to her cancer.

Falls within the home, various reactions to drugs, teeth extractions, migraine headaches, Sjogren's Syndrome, etc.  She never really was able to enjoy her life during her 9 year battle with the cancer.

I was so proud of how she handled it. Through it all, she was a real "TROOPER" !

I thank God for allowing me to spend my life with her for the many years we shared. (Four years of engagement & 49 and one half years of marriage.)

I love and miss you so very much.  Each & every day!  

I LOVE YOU HON!

Until we are united once again......, 

Your LOVING Husband, Bill
