My gramp was a hard working, no bull kinda guy but the sweetest, funniest and most loving man you could ever meet. I feel so blessed to have had such a close relationship with him as I got older and will carry him with me always. I know he is up there right now playing golf, puttering around his shed and loving all of us.

Robbie-
I am not sure you will even remember me, but I remember you from Highlands Elementary School and South Junior.
I am so sorry for the loss of your father. I see that he lived in Nokomis which is very close to where I now live. I lost my own father six years ago and I miss him terribly.
Please know that our prayers are with you.

My Grandfather was a man that I will always measure myself against. He taught me the importance of respect hard work at a very young age, and I am forever proud to be his grandson. I wish I could give him one last backrub.

Dad lived his life with dignity and honor. We will miss his wonderful foolishness and his steady love.
He served his country, his work and his family with the utmost care. We will miss him terribly and wish him Godspeed.

Mr. Nelligan,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USN during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
