I only met him a few times, but I saw he was a wonderful father to Barbara. Great father-in-law to George. The bestest grandpa to Doug. He was there when Barbara needed him. Barbara was there when he needed her the most. What more can he ask for in a family. Don't mourn him to long. Celebrate the years you had by keeping his memory alive.
