So sorry for your loss, and there are no words or anything one can do to help ease this pain, and as the days go by I pray The Lord is with you, that will miss him. Help you be strong and guide you….
Robin, I am truly sorry for your loss. Losing your brothers and now your father leaving you alone. I am here for you if you need anything.
I’m sorry for your loss and wish I could’ve been at the services to show my respect. I will keep you in my thoughts.
It has been over a year and the loss is still felt. As I look over the years of Dad beuing there for me and my family…it is amazing at the way he stepped up to the plate and treated us like we were his own children. My real father passed away when I was 12 and I miss him terribly but without Ed (Dad) in my life during the years of growing up…I would have been so lost and alone. Dad became a husband and a father to a family who had lost one father at a cruical age to all effected. God brought him to us in a time that we needed him and he lifted us up in his prayers and guided us each and every day. Edward H. Repp was a fantastic husband and father and is missed beyond words! God truly bless our family with this wonderful man that we were so BLESSED to have in our lives.
Ed was a wonderful man. It has been a long year and he has been missed. My prayers are with you and your family always.
