RIP Uncle Aj. I have fond memories of visiting you when I was little in PA.

We appreciate his lifetime of service to others. Deepest sympathy to his family and especially his daughter Colleen. I was lucky to have met Colleen's kind parents and they will be missed. God bless the family.

May God Bless you.
