Hey vilas , the world has never been this bad people arguing over stupid stuff daily, friends against friends, family against family. Times were so much easier when all we had to worry about was gas money and whose car was running.

My dearest, sweetest, only brother, with the best smile & biggest heart in the world, You can never be forgotten! Tomorrow is two years that you left us. Every day I miss you more than the day before. Whenever I have a free moment, my mind is filled with precious, sometimes hilarious, treasured memories of you and your million dollar personality.
It's still so bittersweet because I smile, laugh, giggle and shed tears all at the same time. I would give anything I have for just one more day with you brother dear. I'll always remember you introducing me to everyone and anyone you knew, by smiling and saying, this is my little sister. You said it with so much pride and love that it always made me feel special. Thank you for everything we shared together. I'll always love you my big brother!
We'll visit you tomorrow at the cemetery late morning. Look for the balloons Vietski!!!

Miss you so very much Danny Joe. For 56 years you were always teasing me and just being plain old annoying. Now life is almost too quiet without you.
Still can't believe you left us so soon. Would give anything to hear your "duck quack" one more time.
I hope you're sharing many laughs & hugs with Danny Jr. Maybe even doing a little fishing too!
Love you my wonderful Bro, your little sister Flo.

Gone but never will be forgotten.

Vivi, just learned of your passing. So sad. Remembering the good times we had hunting, fishing, sturgeon spearing. Being part of our wedding. I will miss you my friend! Lots of memories. Rest In Peace, until we meet again!
