Meg, I am truly sorry for your loss. Although I never met your father, he had to be an amazing person to raise such a wonderful, caring and kind daughter. I am grateful that you were abke to be near him these last two years and that he was able to spend time with Ryan. What wonderful memories you can share with Ryan as he grows up. We love and miss you!

My dad, what can I say other than he was the best father, friend and "papa" that ever was! Everyone loved my dad, and he loved everyone right back, he was a geniune man with solid values! My dad opened his heart to everyone that knew him. When I was little I had to go everywhere with my dad! My last memory of my dad is on Sunday, the day before he passed away, he and my 8 month old son Ryan, were playing peek-a-boo, both my dad and Ryan were just laughing as if they both knew that this would be there last laugh together! My husband Bill and I will cherish the times that we had with my dad, a/k/a WALLY! The comfort that comes from my dad's passing is no more pain, and that he is finally home with my mom! I love you dad! Meg
