Words of sorrow are just words. without wonderful memories and full hearts they have no meaning.
We were blessed to know such an amazing man. We will never forget all the apples that were given to us along with a sit down of interesting conversations that we always looked forward to.
Gone but never will be forgotten.
May the families hearts heal quickly with the knowledge that there are so many people care about them.
