David,
My heart goes out to you and your family during this time. While I did not know you’re Dad, if his son is any indication of his legacy, then he is a great man.
God bless you.

To the Januhowski Family (Hi David),

You are all in my thoughts and prayers during this sad time. As time goes on, you have the memories of wonderful times together to get throught the grief of losing someone so dear to you. Mr. Januhowski was one of those men, just like my Dad, Charlie, around CTK that made it such a great place to grow up. May God continue to bless and keep you all near to Him.
