Well Pop, we had Mia's First Birthday last week. Wish you could have been there. The party was not the same without you. I make sure Mia gets up to see you at least once a month. After 5 months it still feels weird not having you around.
Love and Miss you!
Amy

Reds, two guys should have so much fun. It was an honor and privilege to spend the past 33 years side by side. I couldn’t have done it without you. One man should be so blessed to have two loving dads. I will miss you more than any words I could ever speak. Give Dolores a hug from all of us and may your souls rest in peace.

Rest in peace,
