Mr. Bedenbaugh,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USN during WW II and the Korean War and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Dear Joel, Mellie and Dorothy,

Your father was truly a remarkable man and I feel so priviledged to have known him. Mr. Bedenbaugh was so very kind and quick to share a smile. He may be gone from this earth, but he will live on as he is a part of each of you. May sweet memories bring you comfort during this time.

Love,
Janet Edenfield

Dorothy, Joel, and Mellie,

I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. He had been such a great friend and neighbor to my mother. She really misses him.

Sorry that I can't be there as I'm in Wisconsin. If there is anything that I can help you with, please don't hesitate to let me know. I'll be back home the first part of March.
