One of the greatest gifts bestowed upon us as children is when were able to care for our Father like he cared for us.
"Other things may change, but we start and end with Family!"
The loss of one's Father marks one of the most profound rites of passage in our lives. We know how close you all were to your Father and what an influence he had on your lives.
Please remember that your Father, and our Uncle Bob's thoughts, hopes, and dreams will continue to live on in those that loved him!
