My deepest sympathy
Biff was an amazingly unique person . The most loyal, kind and loving soul to have blessed my life.
In my most difficult time, Biff never let a day go by without reminding me who I am. He taught me to string moments of happy together until I had years strung together. There are words of wisdom he would repeat to me, that i still quote to this day. His impact on my life could never be repayed. It was priceless. Biff was an angel to this world and he takes a piece of my heart to heaven with him.
