Dear Coblentz Family,
Our family is deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Mr. Coblentz. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family during this difficult time. I have wonderful memories of my childhood in Pomeroy. My sisters and I often enjoyed playing at your home – cook outs, sleepovers, Barbie dolls and plenty of sledding in the wintertime. The Coblentz family was a big part of what made our quaint community of friendly neighbors a great place to grow up and I know I’ll always remember it that way. At this time of sadness, I hope you’re able to cling to the good memories you have of Mr. Coblentz as well, and encourage you to draw on the strength of your family. As you grieve, know that we are remembering you and honoring the memory of Mr. Coblentz.
Peace, prayers and blessings,
The Mowday Family
Very sorry for you lost
Hi Denise,
Very sorry for your lost. I just found out yesterday. I had called Henry out of the blue and he told me. Growing up, Ray always made us laugh. Take care of yourself.
