Your dad was such a wonderful friend to my father and mother, Bill and Ernestine Riley. They will miss their Rhode Island visits with him as he always made a point of keeping in touch with them in their travels to RI. Your dad was such a great guy and I will miss him as well (Kelli). We are all wishing you peace.
