My Uncle, My good buddy but most of all my best friend even in the hereafter. Always in my heart and I will never forget the great times we had over the years...the best. Sure do miss you, your great attitude and smile. I can't believe that much time has passed, since we last visited our best casino. I know we will see each other again. Keep those wheels a spinning.
