With a broken heart my love, my life, my world, my soulmate, and my husband.

He was a Husband, Dad, Papa, Grandpa and a Friend.

Has been taken home to be with Our Lord on September 2, 2025.

Those left to cherish his memories are his children: Tracy and husband Brian Whitlow, Jeremiah Sims and his wife Wendy along with their children, Cora, Samuel and Jillian. Tawnya and husband Joe Guimond and our grandchildren: Trent and Lincoln. Kristina Nye, Shannon Nye and grandson Bryson. Cody Bravo and daughters: Molley Hernandus and Liylah Arnett Bravo.

And so many other loved ones.
