My deep sympathy to all in this difficult time. As we make this journey through our cycle of life we reflect on so many things when loved ones pass on. I for one will dearly miss "Pops" awesome conversations, broad smile and that hearty handshake when I would stop into the shop. It was such an honor to have known him for the years that I did. God Bless you "Pops"

The simplest toy, one which even the youngest child can operate, is called a grandparent. All our love and prayers, our sacred memories and moments will never be forgotten. God’s love and comfort be upon us all.

I have many fond memories of my Grandpa when I was a little girl. He used to love to let me sit by him and make "food" and play music. He had a roaring voice and and a contagious laugh. He loved to give big kisses and hugs. I remember the sports he watched and the dinner he ate in his recliner. He will truly be missed.
