"Dad" was a wonderful, strong man who loved his children fiercely and raised them into wonderful, hardworking, family-rooted, and dedicated people. He was a kind-hearted and generous man who spent the last few years of his life practically in full bed rest but remained a constant and focal-point in the lives of his family. His light shined bright here on Earth and will continue to shine down from the Heavens. May he rest in peace, and his family gain some comfort in him going to a better place. You and your family are in my prayers.
XOXO to Roni, Duane, Ann, Tam, Ken, Eric, and all of the extended family
