A part of our lives for so many years around, we were little babies. Holding them when they were upset and sick and soothing them. Always so thoughtful with all of us. Cards and money for the kids, every holiday and birthday, Amazing. So much fun and such a jokester. We will miss you, Uncle Rich! God bless you, and may your soul rest in peace
