Shelley,

Your Dad was like having a second Dad to me. He watched out for me as much as he did for you when we were still in school. I can't ever remember him without a smile on his face!

I had to wait over 30 years for your family spaghetti sauce recipe but it never tasted anything like his! I can still smell and visualize it, the newspaper all over the counter, and the long wait to sample Italian bread dipped in the sauce.

I'm happy he was free from the dialysis in his last days, and that you were able to be at his side.

God Bless all of you,

Love,
Mark & Debbie (Chase) Thomas
