Karen, Mark and Family, I'm sorry for your loss. I have fond memories of growing up hanging out at your house. Making home made ketchup in the backyard and then getting to take some home in a glass bottle was the best sumemr time activity I can remember. He was always happy to have the neighborhood kids over! I know he will be missed.
