Doug, Neal & family,
Your dad was a vivid part of our lives. From "the clubhouse" days, to the red Mustang convertible ride on Tiffany's 5th birthday to the 3-wheeler races in KY, to his recent retirement party. We loved him and will miss him terribly!!

Our deepest sympathy to Mrs. Orange, Doug, Courtney, Mercedes, Little Doug, and all the family. We'll remember him best, sitting in his lawn chair at his Granddaughters softball games. A nice, nice man.
