Kelly, Dan and Family,

Our deepest condolences at this sad time. Whenever you start to feel sad remember one of the many happy memories you have and I am sure you will feel his love around you.

Remember we are always here for you whether it be a shoulder to cry on or a night to laugh.

grandpa was my favorite pop pop and loved his tamatoes and i want them to be grown every year to remember him and to make that happen i will go out in the fields every day of those hot summer days and plant all of his crops and cherish each and ever one of them just like he did. i know that this loss is very sad but pop pops in a better place now and its better now that he doesnt have to suffer in pain each and every day now hes happy and we all will love him in our hearts forever.

POP POP was a geat man and had an extraordinary life. The memorial service that we just had for him was nothing more than extraordinary. All the people that had helped I thank you so much for your generosity. He would of been very proud.

I remember riding my bike over to play Barbies on the front porch with Kelly in the summer time. Big Ronnie always had a big bag of tomatoes and vegtables for me to bring home to my mom. He was always working in that garden of his. So sorry for your loss. I am sure your love for him will live on in your hearts forever!
