Adam, Howard and Richard,

I'm very sorry to learn of you dad's passing. I'll always remember him as a very nice man who never had anything negative to say about anybody. Before I really knew him, I always wondered who the man was who often sat in the back and watched me practice at Boulevard Lanes on weekday afternoons. It was, of course, your dad, and he always offered words of encouragement. He was proud of you guys, often boasting of your bowling scores. I always enjoyed talking with him.

April 2013 - He fought a long hard battle with a smile on his face and a heart full of love.
