What a gentle, sweet, kind man! It has been such a privilege to have had him in our lives. He was such a great storyteller and had wealth of information to share. We will miss his warm hugs, sweet smile and great laugh but will always live in our hearts forever

A heart the size of Texas! The kindest, most gentle soul. Seahawks fan to the end! The times we spent visiting over the past few years were the best times. Times I will cherish until the end. Strength, resilience, generosity, and love for his family. My brother! May God watch over you and keep you until we meet again. Love you. Bruce
