What makes a DAD
A Dad is a person
who is loving and kind.
And often he knows
what you have on your mind.
He`s someone who listens.
suggests and defends
A Dad can be one
of your very best friends!!
He`s proud of your triumphs
but when things go wrong
A Dad can be patient
and helpful and strong
In all that you do.
a Dad`s love plays a part
There`s always a place for him
deep in your heart
And each year that passes
you`re even more...

I called you Dad until 1976 when your 1st grandson was able to talk then you were called Bump because Dennis could not say Papa.
You have been my Bump for all that time you wre not just my Father you were my Buddy , my best friend.
Thru everything you made everything right all the time for everybody no matter what, and everbody that knew him knows what i mean.
Myself and your grandsons learned what they know from you .
We love you forever in our hearts ,you will always be our...

our deepest conolences to all the family

Dear Janet: Please accept my deepest condolences upon the loss of your dear husband. I count your precious Judith as one of my closest friends for many decades now and in the future.

Concrete's on the way, get up here !!! And we were all there. Whatever it took for Fred, because he was there for all of us when needed. Be it 3 A.M. Fred would weld something up to get us through another day. He was a Father or Brother to so many of us.Unconditionally! We will miss you so, but we will carry your good heart with us 'till we meet again. We have learned the meaning of true freindship from you. Be proud for what you have accomplished on this Earth and go rest high on that...

Please accept my deepest sympathies.
