Tony and Patsy, so sorry to hear, especially at this late date. Praying for strength for the entire family, and hoping the fond memories will sustain you at this time. He will not be forgotten as long as you keep him in your hearts. Still remembering laughing at his drawings. An awesome talent. God Bless you all.
