Alice, Herb and I were saddened to hear of your loss...however, if he was in pain and suffering, God saw to take him to his heavenly place above. We have FOND memories of him, his zest for life, his humor and his smile, and how he could eat a huge lunchbox full of food and never gain a pound!!! May God bless you in the coming days and weeks. We are in AZ, but if covid allows, maybe we can connect next summer. Marilyn Brott always kept us in touch with what was happening with you two.
