Always there in the garage, or the back yard, or enjoying the cabin up north. He watched over all of the neighborhood kids and kept us in line! Sorry he's gone but your memories and great family are his legacy that live on.

So sorry to hear of your loss. when I think of pulling into Littel Acres Mr. P was forever in his garage, fixing something (or staying away from the chaos inside!). Just like my house. Bless to all.
