Thank you for the hours spent quietly watching the ocean tide ebb and flow, for your support, guidance and encouragement.
Though silence is said to be golden the laughter of a child is priceless. You brought many moments to our lives that were filled with joy and laughter.
Thank you for helping me realize the glass is half full not half empty. Thanks for the car trips with math quizzes, for teaching us how to shovel snow with precise execution and appreciate nature in all its beauty and strength. Forever in my heart.

Miss you Pop. You're the man I compared every other guy too. If only I could of had one more hug. One more Andi Pandi. One more story. At least listen to you ramble about mathematics, physics and computers; so ecstatically, while I tried unsuccessfully to keep up and understand. Or hear you talk about Bobba and the war, just fade into another time when hard work and love got you what you needed and wanted. I'll always remember being the little girl who faked being asleep so you'd have carry me in the house. Sitting on your lap and giggling over something that made Bobba give us "the look" for. The memories in Pennsylvania, Georgia, New Hampshire, and Delaware. I love you, Pop. Xoxox Andi Pandi

I love you, Dad, and miss you more than words can say. You were the one person I could have an intelligent, non-judgmental discussion with. When I needed help, you were there. You were a natural teacher, and knowledgeable, wise, and gifted in so many different subjects and ways.

Besides being a father, you were a gentle, appreciative person, and you had a sense of humor and warmth I will sorely miss.

Thank you, Dad. For those things, and for our family name and ancestral connections, which have always been a source of pride to me.

Bless you, and Godspeed on your journey home. May you find the comfort and peace and love and health you so richly deserve on the other side, and pray God we all meet again there someday.

Always and forever, Mike.
