We will always remember our annual Christmas pizza parties, and we will always remember how funny your dad was. We are certain that he was proud of how strong and courageous Peggy, Jessica and CJ were during his last days. The three of you showed him so much love and support, and we believe he knew just how much he was loved. You have our deepest sympathies and we are thinking of you during this tough, tough time.
