Mike, Jon, and Chris, I'am sorry to hear about your Dad. He was quite a guy. I remember talking with him at the old dealership. We would talk golf and other things. He knew I couldn't putt very well and he gave me a putter, which I still have.
May God give you peace during this time.
I am out of town and could not make the visitation.
