So sorry to hear of your loss. My father (John Simmons) worked with your dad at Empire and they were life long friends. My father has been gone almost 5 years and we miss him a lot. I remember he always liked when your father came to visit him and they would talk about his dogs and coon hunting. He was a good friend to my dad and I thank you for the time he shared with my parents. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
