Condolences
Uncle Milt was a kind, patient, understanding soul. I always looked forward to seeing him. In a chaotic world, he took his time, and was even-keeled. He will be missed.
My condolences to all his loved ones. Thoughts and prayers are with you.
My thoughts are with you and the family and how death robs us of our loved ones. Jehovah God has promised to remove death, sickness, and pain from the earth and reunite us with our loved one on a cleansed earth in the future. (Revelation 21:4; John 5:28,29; John 17:3; Psalms 83:18)
 In the meantime you can be sure that God understands how you feel now! The Bible assures us:
“He is healing the brokenhearted ones,
And is binding up there painful spots.” Psalms 147:3

I worked with Dr. Partridge for a brief time when he was interim chair of the Education Dept. at the College of Mt. St. Joseph. He stepped into the position at a very difficult time, and his kind manner was a great relief to many of us. He was a true gentleman.
We at St. Xavier High School were truly sorry to hear of the passing of your father, Milt. Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your entire family as you mourn the loss of your loved one. May the spirit of St. Francis Xavier be with you and your family during this difficult time.
