First of all I would like to say how sorry I am for your loss. Your Dad was one kind, and good man. There are so many stories I've heard about you, your sister. and your Mom. He loved you all so very much. I feel blessed to have known him. The last time I talked to him was after your mother passed. I meant to get out there to see him. I'm so sorry that I didn't make it. I will miss him.
I have to tell you what he did for me, your Dad & his buddy Bob came in to work one day and I was drilling bases with a hand drill, and he (your Dad)
said, won't they by you a drill press? I said I doubt it, it wasn't 2 days later your Dad came in with a brand new drill press he smiled and said Happy Birthday. I will never forget this or his great stories! He was the best. I'm very glad to have had the pleasure of knowing him. You take care of yourself. Alway remember, Day by day, it never is easy to loose someone, especially a parent.

Bob I am so sorry for your loss. I am so glad that I was able to get to know your father. I will keep the memories that he shared with me and the little flashlights. My dad was always asking me about Wamp because he had worked with your dad plus also Local 181 member. I hope prayers and hugs surround you and peace knowing you were there when he needed the most.
