It’s with a heavy heart that I share with you that Heaven welcomed its newest Angel this morning. My Dad was the strongest, sweetest, kindest man who had a heart of gold and loved his country deeply. The love he shared with those that crossed his path will be forever remembered & forever missed. He wanted to celebrate his 92nd birthday and we did that in style . We love you and will forever hold our fun, wonderful memories close to our hearts. .

Dad,
You were always one to lead us by your example and you did so here by leaving us on your own terms. I miss you so much but will remember all the good times.
