Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear of his passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. God Bless

Uncle Pete taught me the values of hard work. I wish I had more of his mechanical abilities. On my visits 3 weeks ago he told me he loved me and said see you in heaven

Kim
So sorry for your loss. Your dad was a such a kind and wonderful man. I enjoyed our visits together . Thinking of you and your family. Give my love to Dennis and give your brother Mike a hug from me. Love, Gerri (Reed) Conrath.
