This summer when we were home, we saw Sawd at the VI. He was laughing, smiling, hugging and kissing, being himself. This is the way I'm going to remember him. He was a great supporter of the Grass Lake Fire Department, always good to the guys when they went in the VI. No matter our age, we are never ready to lose a parent. May happy memories comfort you.
