One of the sweetest men you’ll ever know. He was kind and fun to be around. He was totally devoted to his family. He loved his wife immensely. He was a good dancer and he danced with all of us ladies at dance class. We cruised with him and Betty and danced every week with them. Both are still going to be sorely missed but I know they’re dancing in heaven together. May God bless his family and comfort them as they grieve the loss of this special man
