My father lead a full and interesting life. I was fortunate to live close by so he could be a large part of our lives and that of his granddaughters , and his great grandson..He loved attending their sporting events, school functions and graduations. I loved the way he always invited one of the family to go with him to a pops concert and out to dinner.His kindness and generosity will be in my heart forever. I'll miss our visits, and the beautiful roses and dahlias he grew . Love his daughter
