To Glenda and Adam....In time the memories that you have shared with your Love and your Dad will comfort you. He was a good man and loved you both so much. I will always remember his quick sense of humor and his little laugh when he would call in to talk to Glenda. I also know how proud he was of his Son, Adam. Rest in Peace Mr. Happy. You were loved by so many....
