Our family would like to send our deepest sympathy. Unk has been through so many trials and tribulations but he never gave up, always had a smile and a laugh. Aunt Jean by his side, encouraging all the way, maybe fussing a little too. We will surely miss you on this side, but now you can play your guitar, in the Heavenly Choir, take your rest.
