I´m so happy that you are no longer in pain Smoke but I will miss you. Give a hug to all who have gone before.
Praise God the pain is gone and you are at peace. My first thought was of you saying "this place is so great I don´t even need a car!"
Do they have a garden up there?
Much love, your baby sister, Shirley

Smoke was a coworker and great friend. He served our union brothers well and will always be remembered. It was an honor being his friend. Our thoughts are with his family and friends during this time of loss.
