Mr. Hackshaw will be greatly missed. He was a very good man; and always willing to help. We had many conversations over the years; and talked about current events. He was a great husband, and father. My condolences to the entire family.

Sorry for your loss. Attended the funeral on Wednesday 1/10/18. It was a very nice ceremony. A salute to an Air Force veteran. May you fly high and true in the next life, sir.
