Not sure what to say?

Miss his advise. Pray all is well with the family he loved.

How appropriate that this notice appeared to day, the day after his beloved Packers make a run for the Super Bowl. Been thinking of my adopted Irish Father often, as I recently had a hip replacement and am using his cane. Prayers to all.

This is a wonderful reminder of a good man.

My Uncle, my advice giver, especially as I felt I never needed any... since I was six years old. My pro football rival (see that ridiculous shirt he's wearing???) who happily took a few bucks from me and Katie over the years. I'll miss our regular emails about our White Sox and family and how he always insisted on visits. I think about him and miss him every day.

Grateful that we were able to get together for our Slobig Reunion a few years back.

My love and prayers to all...

May joy soon replace the sorrow that's in your heart, with cherished memories.
