It is still so difficult to comprehend that you are gone. I somehow have some solace in knowing that your loving wife Beth was by your side when she had to let you go. I wish this would never have to be. We never know when goodbye will be our last. You are loved & missed by me, Uncle Dennis and my sisters and brother. You truly were one of a kind and will not soon be forgotten.
