God Bless him with a Beautiful Home in Paradise. What a wonderful Man!!!!

October 3, 2019

Almost 1 year ago as time continues to past. He is still missed by all of us and especially my Mother. Their nearly 70 years of marriage is a big void to fill. He was a model Father for his children to follow. It is literally impossible not to reflect on the role he played in my life. I am blessed to have had him as my Father, what a strong man and a model human being.
