There are no words to express my sorrow for the lost of such a dear man/friend. I always admired such a fun loving, caring man, and the love he had for his family. I will never forget the good times we shared and will cherish his memory forever. My prayers are with the family and I know we will see him again when we
stand in the presence of Jesus.
