Laura: I only met your Dad once(at the reunion)but even now I remember him as a great guy who was not only fun to be around but he instilled in his children all the right principles of life. May God bless all of you with his Grace so that you may come to have peace in your hearts after the loss of your father. We are keeping all of you in our thoughts and prayers.
