I had always known that my father was well liked, I just never realized the extent of it. Since he has passed I have heard so many wonderful stories from many people, Family, friends,his neighbors, his old co-workers, even people at the bank and pharmacy knew my dad and had kind words to say about him. He was always ready with a smile and willing to help out if anything was needed. He was a kind and loving man, a great husband, father and grandfather. I miss him more than words can say. I LOVE YOU DADDY!!!!

I love you Daddy.

My dad was always there for anyone who needed him. I had a hard time thinking of what I wanted to say, because there is so much. No words can express the pain we are feeling. We were standing beside him till the very end and I will never forget that night. I'm so lucky that I was blessed with the opportunity to spend what time he had left telling him how much I loved him and what he meant to me. I love you and I miss you, but I'm glad you're not hurting anymore. I'll carry you forever in my heart daddy.

My Father was an amazing man. The father said at the service that my father confessed his sins, but I can't for the life of me imagine what sin he would confess. He never did anything wrong to ANYONE.

So much to say and I don't know exactly how to put it. The past few months were hard watching him slowly get worse. It hurt to watch him in pain and as much as I hate the fact he passed away, I believe he would have wanted it that way rather than suffering. Words can't explain what an amazing person my grandfather was. We all miss you and love you!

Although it has been years since I've seen Uncle PeeWee, it's so easy to remember his smile. I will treasure all of the memories I have of him and his fun-loving ways. Your family is in my prayers.

Uncly Peewee was always there for us, no matter what. We'll always remember his ready smile and funny lines for any situation. Mostly, we'll remember the love and support he gave to all of us. God bless him and bless you too. May he rest in peace.

In every memory I have of Uncle PeeWee, he was always laughing, smiling and joking around. He was always so great with me and my family. The impressions he left on me will stay with me forever. We are all going to miss him very much.
