Dear Lisa, Scott and family:

Chad and I want you to know that we are here for whatever you may need. Lisa- from my review of the notes that have been posted, your dad had a great laugh. While I did not have the pleasure of knowing him, you are him in many ways. You too have a full and contagious laugh. While it is difficult now, continue to smile as you are your daddy's little girl, filled with love and compassion for others. Remember the note I passed along-lean on Him-
