Knew him well. A man of great intentions, confidence and at times brillance! Generous to a fault...He devised a plan, worked out the intimate details and tweaked the results successfully. Blessed to have chosen the right mate, devoted and loving. He had his heart in the right place and could always tell a provocative story. He played a key role in many people's lives. Lived a full life. I haven't seen him in years but he never varied from his unique personality. May God bless

Our prayers go out to the entire family. We recently had a lost in our family. The grief can be tremendous. I hope that you can find comfort in this time of extreme grief. I’m encouraged to know that God is "near to those that are broken at heart; and those who are crushed in spirit he saves.” (Psalms 34:18)
