The Curtin family is grateful

Sunday, April 20, 2003

Letter to the editor

The family of Cpl. Michael E. Curtin would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the entire Howell community and to the many considerate persons and organizations throughout the state and nation who have offered their condolences and support. The outpouring of support, generosity and condolences over the loss of Michael has been overwhelming. Although our family has suffered a tremendous loss, we know that you share in our grief and will continue to hold Michael in your thoughts and prayers.

We would especially like to acknowledge the U.S. Army, Father Brendan Williams and the Church of St. Veronica, Robert McGirr and the Clayton and Son Funeral Home, the Howell and Wall Township Police and Fire departments, Sir Ives Caterers and Pathmark of Howell. There are many other organizations and persons too numerous to mention by name but who also have earned our eternal gratitude and appreciation.

-- Joan and Mike Curtin and Family, Howell
