Char and girls, Kim and I send our most sincere thoughts to you. What a wonderful husband, dad, grandpa and friend. You have many many memories that will help you through the following weeks, months etc. Cherish all those and know that even though he has passed no one will be able to take your memories. Lean on each other, and your friends. You all know he is in a much better place but that doesn't make the hurt of the loss any less. Tears are ok, but laughter will help you through this time so very much. Thinking about you all at this time. Tami
