The first time I saw your father was at the Midway. He was there picking up your mother. He was the most handsome man I had ever seen. Over the years I'd see him in passing and he always had a smile and a warm hello. However, it was only in the past few years that I really got to appreciate what a fanatastic man he really was. I would see him at Babes and knew I would be walking out crying from laughter. When he spoke of you girls he could not get the smile off his face. He will be greatly missed.

Elyce and Brandi, I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad and one of my best friends. Every Sunday when I worked @ Uncle Babe's we shared one dinner plate with 2 forks, laugh, thats all we ever did was laugh. He would tell his stories of his past and of his cat, laugh again. The last time I saw him was 3 weeks ago @ Uncle Babe's and he said to me "Could you see me and you on my bike, you with 1 leg and me that I can't walk we make a good pair, laugh again. I will miss him and never forget my friend, Phil.
