You were a jack of all trades but my dad first. I remember how you were always available in helping our family members with housing projects and fixing their cars, only asking for a few beers and company. You were generous with your skills and had a fun sense of humor that attracted people to you. I miss and love you dad. Wish you could of stayed with me longer.

My condolences go out to Michael and all of his family for their loss. He is at peace and rest now. I knew him as "Uncle Tommy" and will always remember him with the few memories I had. God Bless

Tommy:

I am sorry that I did not have the chance to say Good-Bye. I just thank the Lord that you are no longer suffering and in pain. You are going to be missed so much by all of but never forgotten.
