A Note of Thanks from Buren Haggai

Dear IGA Family,

Your expressions of sympathy and condolence have been a blessing to me and my family during this time of deep sorrow as we mourn the loss of a beloved husband, father, and grandfather, Thomas Haggai.

I would like to respond to each of you personally as you have reached out to me through cards and personal notes, but I trust each of you will know how very meaningful your kind words are to our family.

Tom was happiest when he was visiting an IGA Store and chatting with owners and employees. If he visited your store, you soon learned that he never met a stranger...and he loved to talk!

I thank God that he didn't have to suffer pain as he passed quietly, surrounded by family.

May God bless each of you and keep you safe as we all navigate these unusual circumstances caused by the virus sweeping our country. You put yourselves on the "front line" as you keep your doors open, stocking your shelves so your customers can have access to the basic needs of every family..

With deep gratitude,

Buren Haggai
