Bobby, I have such fond memories of both your parents and of you and Mike all those years ago at Antioch. You have lost a lot over these past couple of years. May God give you peace and comfort as you remember your dad´s good life and may you be surrounded with the love of family and friends in the days ahead.
God´s grace and peace to you!

Bobby,
I am so sorry to learn of your father´s passing. He was such a kind man and one my family always trusted for our car care. His memory is a blessing to many.
