We will miss you Dad, you were a terrific father in law to me, and father and grandfather. You were there every day when your son Steven had the brain tumor operation and when he was in Good Shephard. You served our country and saved your fellow soldiers. You were a very loving giving, and caring person. You loved your dogs and cats. We will miss you.
