Condolences & Memories (10 entries)

• Though I only knew you for the first ten years of my life, Papa, the impact you made on me—and on everyone around you—has stayed with me always. You were an amazing man, and to this day, people speak of you with such admiration and love. I wish you could see the life I’ve built and meet my son, who bears your name and will grow up hearing stories of the incredible man you were. I find comfort knowing you and Nanny are together again, watching over us. You are deeply missed, always loved, and forever remembered. - Posted by: Brooke (Great grand daughter) on: Nov 13, 2024

• Wow, 16 years have now passed. Where has the time gone. We still talk about your hunting stories. My boys are following in your footsteps with hunting. No moose hunting yet. My daughters go hunting for deer and they have been successful. Thanks to you. Will always remember you and always Love you. - Posted by: Bohdan Cherepak (Daughter) on: Nov 15, 2020

• Dad, miracle of miracles happened yesterday. Fourteen years to the day of your passing a huge blessing fell on this family. I know this gift of "day" was of your doing. You have watched down & over us noting how very sad November 17th has been for the lot of us, but you have guided and changed that. Benjamin & Ashley welcomed into this world their first child on the anniversary of your passing Dad and she, Kennie Everleigh is beautiful and has forever eased the sorrow of November 17th. Ben & Ash know they hold a very special gift. Thank-you Dad, please guide her and ALL of your grandchildren to be strong and to show love & respect for each other. - Posted by: Karen (Daughter ) on: Nov 18, 2018

• Dad, you now have mom once again by your side. Hold her close, love her like you always have and take comfort knowing that her pain on earth is no more. Only good times for you both now. I picture the two of you waltzing and smiling in each other's arms. I will always love, respect and feel nothing but thankfulness for being that lucky girl to have learned so very much through my lifetime from two such beautiful souls. Thank you for making me the strong individual I have become. - Posted by: Karen (Daughter ) on: Jan 01, 2018

• I can't belive it has already been 10 years. I miss you grandpa, alot. Sure I wasn't that old when you left us but that doesn't mean I love you any less. For the time you were here, you were an amazing grandpa and I couldn't have asked for anyone better. Whenever mom and dad tell me stories about you it's just makes me wish I could have known you a little bit better. I can't wait until the day that I can see you again. I love and miss you with my entire heart. Love Always, Laine - Posted by: Laine (Granddaughter ) on: Dec 27, 2014

• Pops... 10 years has been a long time. So much has happened. But losing you still hurts like it was yesterday. You were the glue that held our family together. The anchor to keep us from drifting away. The light that shone the brightest. You were wise, funny, honest and showed us a work ethic like no one else I know. I love you and miss you. - Posted by: Sheri-Lyn (Daughter) on: Dec 06, 2014

• Dad/Grandpa, It's been 10 years since you left us. Not a day goes by that we don't think of you. You were funny, kind, patient, and talented in so many ways. Many tears are still shed knowing you are not here. What we wouldn't do to have you back. Love & Miss you!

• Not a day goes by where I don't think of you Dad. It hurt so very much to see you in all of that pain and I hope & pray that wherever you are now, you are at peace. I miss you & love you always. I was a lucky girl to have grown up with a wise & loving father and so very thankful to have had you in my life for as long as you were here with us. Ten years have gone by, but there are days, LOTS OF DAYS it hurts like yesterday. Miss you Pops, XO - Posted by: Karen (Daughter) on: Nov 05, 2014
