Whenever I spoke to Mr Creter, he always had wise advice, whether it was about DIY projects or boating. He was a man of great experiences and he adored his daughters. As a father of a young daughter, I had the utmost respect for him. He was taken way too soon. I send my deepest sympathies to Dawn and Tiffany and their entire families. I give them the strength to carry on and remember all of the good he gave them. He watches over them and may his soul rest in peace.
