I'm so saddened and hurt to hear of your passing. You were a wonderful boss, father figure, husband, father and grandpa. Your legacy will live on forever. I am so sorry I couldn't come say goodbye. I'm sorry this is the first year I didn't message you on your birthday, which you hated being an april fools baby . Now fly high and rock out up there in the heavens like you loved to do. Keep watching over Arleen, Chris, Kerri, Rich, Dylan and Carter
