To a man that believed in me, truly was a roll model on what a real father is like, you and your wife taught me so much on how a family should be. I never forgot and often look at life how you would have seen it and what you would do. I love the way you always found the good in people no matter what, took a bad situation and made it good. Always gave what you could to make others happy such a nice man and often thought about. - Posted by: GJ (Friend) on: Feb 27, 2022
