You were always one with a laugh and a bright smile. My early days with you on a fishing bank or just having a what you would call a ho-bo lunch down the street from your floor covering store will last me to my departure! you were and always will be a shining light in my life. the pearly gates are there and open for your departure from this planet. till we meet again dear Uncle. May God rest your soul for eternity.
