I am very sorry I could not be there to celebrate a life well-lived, and well-served for others. Both Mom & Dad cherished his wise and tender skills, including "house calls" which are unheard of today. God bless him, and comfort you and all his friends with memories of his humor!

Bob, you are in my thoughts and prayers at this time....your father was a man that I would have
been honored to know....may God bless his memory.
