I was very sorry to hear of the passing of your Father, he was a man of character, integrity and a great sense of humor. His wisdom and understanding as President of local 1148 helped give comfort and assurance to the membership. A man of his insight and vision will be greatly missed.

May God ever comfort you in this hour of grief.

Louise and Denny,
I have been living in Houston, Tx since 1981. I do read the Toledo Blade online and was so sorry to see your Dad's obituary. I remember when your Mom and Dad drove us to Reynoldsburg and I stayed at your house when you initially moved there. I've thought of your family through the years and have many fond memories of hanging out at your house on Spring Grove. I am very sorry for your loss.
