Our Dad was among the most caring and easy-going people I have ever met. He was a loving and devoted husband to my mother for 47 years and an amazing father to me and my brother and sisters. He also loved his 6 grandchildren more than life itself. What mattered most to my father wasn't material possessions, status or wealth. What mattered most in his life were his family and friends. He will be missed by us all but will never be forgotten. I am the person I am today largely because of the values I learned from my Dad. I love you Dad!
