Buddy, this good man is missed as much as anyone can be missed. He lived his life with much love and kindness and those qualities are instilled in his beautiful family and remembering him will just come naturally to those of us who met him on life's path.

We love this man,
Vena and Lynn

Prayers of comfort for your family. Stay united in the example of how to live that he left each of you as his legacy, by keeping his love alive.
As the day lingers on, your family will be constantly on my mind. We are just down the road, if we are not at work.. here for you all, any time, day or night.
