Jill, Tina & Cathy-Sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. My condolences to everyone. Sorry I saw the announcement so late. Uncle Angie... Spent a few hours of my childhood in the filling station and had a few cokes from that coke machine... it is funny what you remember. Well your Dad always had that smile and he always made me laugh with his quick wit. Quiet but to the point. I am sure your Mom is happy to have him by her side. Dee and I send all our love. God bless.

It was wonderful having your parents as neighbors. It would make us smile to see him take his daily walks and feed the birds. Loved his free roadside vegetable give-aways! The family did a super job of taking care of him so he could stay at home as long as he did. We already miss seeing him out & about. Keep the memories close.
