Kim, Craig, Priscilla,Juliet, Ben & Mabel, Al, Bill and families. My sincerest sorrow and thoughts to you for this tremendous loss. Words can't say enough about how much he loved each one of. Kim you had the greatest man I ever knew and you were able to bring all things together for him and his family. I will pray for each one of you that you sorrow turns to those wonderful memories that you have all shared. The gap will always be there but the good times will be as well. This is true for everyone's life he touched. Love Cathy, RJ and Becky
