I have many fond Memories working with you on the road for Kmart Design and Construction. Your wisdom and support taught me so much. My greatest Memories were when we would find a NTN Triva Location and spend many hours just playing the game..... You are so missed!
My Prayers go out to the Family and I wish you much Peace...
