I will really miss Pops. He was always so cheerful and kind to me and my family. Every time I went to Piace's I would hope he would be working the counter that day. He always brightened up my day. You are all in my prayers.

Pops was like a second Dad to my son Cody. I can't express enough how much his guidance toward my Son meant to me. I only met Pops a few times, yet it was easy to see why Cody so loved him. My thoughts and prayers go out to Brian and the rest of the family.
