We wish to express our sincere thanks and appreciation to our many friends, neighbors and relatives for the kindness and sympathy shown during our recent bereavement, the loss of our beloved Arthur E. Ackelson.

We especially wish to thank his friends and the staff at Passavant Retirement Center, Zelienople (especially 2nd floor nursing), the congregation and friends from Harrisville United Methodist Church for their continued prayers and cards these past several years. Rev. Williard Morse for his support over time and kind words. The ladies of Emmanuel Lutheran Church for the wonderful luncheon. Rev. Gary Brown for his time, prayers, and soothing words. Finally Dru Bryan and the staff at the Jay Bryan Funeral Home for understanding and seeing to our needs. Also a special thanks to Lyrie for singing for Grandpa Arthur.

Those who sent flowers, cards, food and all others who in any way tended to lessen our sorrow.
