15 years ago tomorrow and it still hurts. Wish you were here dad but I know you're not in pain any more. It just saddens me that you didn't have more time with your grandchildren to see how they all grew into wonderful adults and everything that they accomplished. You would be so proud! Hope heaven is treating you well. Until we meet again...❤

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your father. I'd like to extend my deepest sympathies to you, your family & your loved ones. I remember the Kuzur family from Brighton Park at Davis school and I have many memories of you, of course from Kelly H.S. I hope you remember me too. May God bless you and help to heal you through your time of sorrow. With love from an old friend.
