Its hard to drive by and not see him tending to his roses or sitting in his truck, waving when someone goes by. He will be missed dearly.

"Grandpa" I loved the time we spent together this summer. You were so patient with me when I was "attacking" your yard with clippers & pulling down tree limbs all while under your stern, astonished gaze! We shared many laughs, stories & heartfelt conversations. I learned so much about you. You were kind & loving to me and I will miss you greatly. When we meet again, perhaps you will raise my "wages" from 45 cents to 46 !!! May you rest in the arms of the angels. Goodbye Dear Friend.
Love, Your Daughter-in-Law Chris
