We were so very blessed to have such a wonderful father as long as we did. He was always there for us, no matter what and we always knew he loved and cared for us 110% of the time. We will miss him terribly but will always feel his presence because he will be forever in our hearts! We love you, Dad! :)
Love,
Ellen
