I remember the year that Astor came home from the military, I was around the age of 6. He rushed upstairs to change clothes he wanted to go visit Tina. I was in their wedding, Astor always called me Frances. He was a good man, he absolutely loved his family! Tina meant the world to Astor. He will be missed, I am heartbroken, But I have peace knowing that Astor is in heaven with his wife, son and other family members that he loved. He served his Country, For that alone I was always Proud of him.
