Phil and Sam, it's hard to find the words to convey how deeply sorry I am to hear of your father. We go back to way before either of you were born. We managed to always keep in touch. He was so proud of you both. His last Christmas card included pictures of you both and your children Phil. I shared them with my mother who couldn't believe it. He also talked frequently of his visits to Florida and getting to spend time with his father. I'm glad for his recent cards & emails which I always shared with my family. He will be missed and fondly remembered. Prayers going out to your entire family. RIP Brother Dave.
