To my dear cousins,
I want to say “words escape me” about how I feel about the loss of Steve (Jim).
On the other hand, I have so much to say.
Please just know that, even though I am in California, I am connected to each one of you in my heart ❤️ as you go through this difficult time.
What a wonderful reunion he must be having with Aunt Rose and Uncle Don and all our loved ones who have gone before us!
I love you, cousins. 💞
Diane
Thank you Di for such a heartfelt note to all of us! xo
I am with you “all the way.”
Connected in my heart. ❤️
So sorry for everyones’ loss……We will surely miss him…….
My dear Steve I just learned about your passing through our mutual friend Sharon McNally. We reminisced how we enjoyed dancing, singing and improvising. See you again one day Steve my sympathies to the Seal family.
Thank you for your kind note!
Thank you for your kind message
Thank you for your thoughtful note!
We were heart broken and sad to hear the passing away of our dear cousin Steve. Our sincere condolences to Steve’s family and to the entire Seal Family. He always had a smile on his face and he enjoyed all his family and friends. Our 1973 road trip to California with cousin Phil, Steve and myself was certainly a highlight of my life. We really did enjoy that experience. Of course there were many visits to Uncle Bud’s farm where we would get into a little trouble during those visits. Too many to mention. I will miss Steve so R.I.P. my dear cousin. XXOO
I met Steve many years ago, in the early 70’s and he was always a gentleman to me when visiting the Seal household. Another gentleman gone way too soon.
I won’t be able to attend as we’re in Florida until May but sending my heart felt condolences to all of your families !! 😢
Pete, that is a beautiful note! Thank you so much!
Thank you Ralph, lovely note!
I have struggled to express my heart on Steve’s passing. Many good memories, him putting cucumber slices on my puffy eyes to our hilarious time at Donny’s cottage. He was easy to love and the laughter we shared won’t be forgotten. I send my love and sympathy to my cousins the Seal family, All my love xxxooo’s
p.s. maybe reconsider putting on his famous clown nose, or not!
Now that would be funny, don’t know of anyone who has done that before!!
Thank you for the memories of our Steve (Jim)
Dear Jim (Jimbo), you will surely be missed by all your family and friends of which you had many. I am honored to have been your cousin. God Bless you in heaven.
Love it, our Jimbo! Thanks Linny! Such a lovely note!❤️
Stevie … you will be missed. We all have such fond memories of you, your smile, your sense of humour. I can picture you running around at Victoria Park so many years ago. Sending our love to all our Seal cousins … thanks for all the great memories over the years. xo
Thank you Carol for your kind, thoughtful note! Beautiful memories of days gone by!❤️🙏
Pete, Thanks for the lovely note and fond memories! Steve loved the days when he would hang out with the Lovering Boys! ❤️
Steve, My sweet cousin, always fun, always funny. So many great memories of Victoria Park, Wicklow, Winthrop Avenues, and some crazy adventures on Uncle Bud’s farm. In my heart forever. As you are loved, so you will be missed … Forever.
