I couldn't have asked for a better father-in-law. He always treated me like one of the family from the time bob and I started dating. Always good for a story or two or some little practical joke. He will always be with us in our hearts and memories...until be meet again in Heaven!

The most wonderful father in law anyone could ask for, quite a teaser, but always a pleaser. He wanted for everyone to be very happy. An angel in deed, now in Heaven with Mom...

My dad was the best storyteller I knew. He would love to talk about his days on the farm when all our family was together. Dad loved fast pitch softball and we went all over So. Cali watching my brothers play. I am so glad I cared for him these last months. He now remembers every detail of his life. I will miss him, but know he is with our Heavenly Father. Love you Dad!
