I am very saddened to lose my neighborhood Dad. I'll always remember the many times I spent at your house drinking coke and laughing. And, the many times he told us to be quiet so he could hear the news. I am so proud that he was able to make the Old Glory Honor Flight Trip with Katie & I.
He will remain in my heart forever.
