A true, kind man... Can recall visiting Sears at Six Corners as a child and how he would smile and easily share hugs for all of us each time. What wonderful joy would spread across my Dad's face whenever he shared stories of this special cousin over the years too. Without a single doubt, he was immediately welcomed by Him and so many, many who loved and were loved by him. He is well again ??
