All my sympathy to the family and friends. My dear Dillwyn , I met him as a guest at Kedgwick salmon club. He never forgot to give us a box of chocolate to the ladies at his arrival. such a thoughtful man. He asked lots of questions and was trying to speak French and was asking me to translate ! We miss you my dear Dillwyn. xox

Dearest Kitty and family,
what beautiful memory Dill's obituary brought back. Frank Wasson , Bob's and my son sent me the very moving tribute to Dill and he seemed no different than the days of collage.
Much peace to you , Kitty, you seem to have a wonderful family around you and great memories of Dill.
Much love

Dear Kitty,

Eric Allen and Carol Stergio join me in extending our heartfelt sympathy to you and your family at this sad time. Dill was so dedicated to Family Focus and we enjoyed working with him here at Davenport Trust Fund. On a personal note, I know how much my late mother, Clare, thought of you and Dill. She enjoyed seeing you at Mid Coast Hospital and at Blair's and Judy's parties! I will miss seeing Dill downtown and at Shaw's. He was such an energetic and great guy!

Dear Kitty-just got your note and was so shocked to hear about Dill-he looked so good when we saw you last summer. You always said he and Len played well together-and it was so true-they picked right up without missing a beat--as did we all actually.

Love and Hugs
Ginny

My dear friend Kitty
Words cannot express how sad I was to receive your note about Dil.
There was never a letter that didn't include some adventure that you and Dil were about to take or just had completed.
He will live in your heart and memories always.
Please extend Jim's and my sympathies to all the family.
Love Sharon

We were totally saddened and shocked to hear of Dills passing. Dill and Kitty were the first friends we made when we moved to Fitchburg to begin careers at the Paper Mill. We will remember Dill as someone warm and genuine who was always positive and loved life. He was always ready to help and share his knowledge. He certainly left this world better off as a result of his existence. He will be fondly remembered and missed.

My sincere condolences to the family members during this difficult time. I just want to share a scripture that has strengthened me when I lost loved one. I pray it soothe the pain you are experiencing. Isaiah 41:10 "Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not gaze about, for I am your God. I will fortify you. I will really help you.” You will find similar uplifiting verses in the website jw.org

Dear Kitty, We are so sorry to learn of Dill's passing. I have known Dill since grad school at U of Me and throughout our work careers together at Fitchburg. You comment that he was a humble man, I can certainly attest to that and add that he was always the gentleman, considerate in his actions with others.
