Mrs. Jean, We were so sorry to hear about your son. Even tho we didn't know him we thought a lot of his father & you. We know how hard it is to lose a son. Our prayers & thoughts are with you at this time.

To the man that taught me how to be a father and a man. Patient, loving, enduring, he took my mother and I in and gave me a beautiful sister. I love you Dad and will miss you!

To the man that taught me the true meaning of being a father and a man. Patient, kind, enduring. Took my mother and I in and provided for the two of us, and gave me a beautiful sister. I love you Dad and will miss you dearly.
