For the longest time considered this family has my own. So sorry for his loss. He was kind and had a great sense of humor. My condolences to Marilyn and his kids.

My grandfather was an incredible man. His love and support were a constant in my life. Nothing will fill the whole losing him leaves but he will live on in my memories and stories I will tell my son.
