Jane & Susan,I will always cherish our years on theEast Side of Troy. I will always applaud his efforts when he fought the fire on our porch and made sure that we all got out our Home. The sense of humor he showed when he was barbecuing and our dog stole his steak before he put iron the grill. I´m sorry
Jane & Susan, please accept my heartfelt condolences for the loss of great neighbor and friend. I will always remember that he called out fire and used his hose to help us all escape safely from our home.

Mrs. Porter and Family,
So sorry for your loss. Mr. Porter was a GREAT man. I always enjoyed playing in the Troy Vet behind his foursome and especially the laughs afterwards!
My deepest condolences for your loss.
