Dear Ulman Family,
We are all thinking of you and your family at this very difficult time.
He will always walk beside you,
In the moments when you feel low,
Given time you’ll think of your memories,
And bask within their glow,
You’ll smile and bring to mind,
Occasions that meant so much,
The way he loved you dearly,
His warm and tender touch,
Be thankful for the years you shared,
The recollections locked in your heart,
Life will go on without him – yes –
But he will still always play a part.
Dear Ilona (Mama), Jozef, Valene and the entire Ulman Family, my most heartfelt and deepest sympathies to all of you in the loss of Tata, your husband, father and grandfather.
I always enjoyed my visits with Tata, the laughs that we shared in spite of our language barriers, the hugs and handshakes hello, the welcoming smile and even the sharing of the occasional glass or two of Palinka!
I am deeply grateful to your family, for allowing me to be a small part of it and for the opportunity to have known Tata and to have spent time with him. I am honoured that you shared Tata with me. I know that the time that I shared together with him, however brief, cannot compare to the lifetime that you have been blessed to have shared with him!
Jozef was a wonderful man! I hope and pray that your hearts are full to overflowing with warm, wonderful, happy and cherished memories of him and may your memories comfort you as you struggle to deal with your loss. I pray that the love that Jozef had for all of you will give you both peace and strength during this difficult time.
To you especially Mama, I am so sorry that I only now learned of Jozef’s passing and that I have unfortunately missed Tata’s service. I hope that I have the opportunity soon, to visit you and personally extend my condolences.
May God bless you Mama, you and your entire family!
Rest in Peace Tata!!
