" Poppy " was one of the nicest men I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He befriended me from the first time I met Kristi. His dry humor and love for Cowboy movies will be missed.

My Poppy. How I adored my Poppy. I am incredibly fortunate that Poppy was apart of my life. I will miss him dearly, I will miss hearing "You are so sweet, youre like pure sugar!" every time I saw him. My heart aches to hear his voice just one more time. There was not a better person on this earth then my Poppy.

Pop...or poppy as we liked to call him was a kind soul. Friendly and giving. He loved fishing and crabbing. His sweet tooth was infamous in our family. Chocolate muffins and any homemade cookie made him happy. I am fortunate that he was a part of my Family and thankful he was there to support my mom all these years.
