Many memories made from watching Laural and Hardy one of his favorite shows when I was a kid, to riding in the jumper seat zooming down the road in his classic car, and being able to take him out for his favor lunch at big boys. Was definitely a shock to hear of his passing. He was always outgoing and appreciative of everything. Prayers to the family and my Dad to get through this hard time. My thoughts and prayers will be with you at the vigil.
