His absence will be deeply felt by many friends but especially his family. He was a wonderful grandfather, father & husband to my sister for over 50 years. I remember him coming over to see her when I was a kid. He always seemed very easygoing. He was meticulous about his lawn even to the point of power washing the landscape rocks. He was an essential part of their family. With his strong disposition I thought he would be her well into his 90s. I'm heartbroken for the loss of the patriarch of your family.
Love and prayers to all, Sharon
