My husband, Doug, and I were privileged to work with Dee for many years at my father's service station. I remember Dee as always laughing and smiling, always joking around with us. He will be missed.

Supreme Architect of the Universe, you now have before you the decision to accept yet another Brother into your Celestrial Lodge. This is a man who has done his best for others while ignoring his own health, these are the actions that dictate our final destination. It is our promise to take care of Betty in her remaining years while you attend to Donnie. Our hope is in God!

Millions of times you told me "babydoll, life is short, you just have to be happy, that's all you have to do".
You stepped up and gave me all the advice dad would have wanted. I know he is beside you now, as when you were kids. You have loved me like I was your own,and I'll always be grateful. You told me more childhood stories of my dad and Nancy that I would have never heard. I always felt dad was near when you were around. I'll miss you so much pappy, and I hope I'm lucky enough to see you again soon. I love you. Babydoll
