Uncle Dan
Weekends spent together as a family while growing up. I have so many memories and I am thankful I have them. Christmas Eves, and all the summer holidays spent with you.
Your legacy will live on through Aunt Carole, your children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, your brother, your nieces and our families.
You will never be forgotten just as the others before you have not. I hope you had a grand reunion with Uncle Tom, Aunt Sylvia, my Mom and the rest who were waiting for you. Bo-Bo was waiting at the Rainbow Bridge for you.
You are loved, you are missed and you will be remembered always.
Love
Karensue
