We cannot say, and will not say that he is dead. With a cheery smile and a wave of the hand, he has wandered into paradise. until you see him again in a square, may your strength give you wisdom and patience in this time of loss.
You'll are in our prayers.
His square dancing friends.
He was wonderful to us with my dad was sick.
