We only knew him a few years, but he was one of the finest men we have ever met. A fun loving, straight shooter all the way, who loved his family more than anything. A very special man whom we will all miss until we greet him again on those streets of gold. May your life now be filled with God's special peace that surpasses all understanding so the healing of your sadness begin. Love,

Deb Kirk
