My deepest sympathies to his earthly family. He has now joined his beloved wife and they are now together in eternity. The family is in my thoughts at this difficult time….
Our Dad was patient, caring and kind. He was the guy everyone called Dad or Grandpa. He was loved by many and will be missed by many.
So sad about your dad Tammie. 😢. He is finally back with mom which is where he would want to be. We are all thinking of you and your family. Take what time you need we have the kitchen covered. Hugs to you all.
