Through the years you have always made my visits up north a little brighter. I use to love knowing you would be popping in most mornings for Coffee and conversation at your daughter Paula’s . Im honored to have known you. You were a great Dad, a wonderful grandfather and a true friend and no doubt you will be missed. I’m glad we were able to celebrate Fathers day with you.
Rest easy old man, Heaven has opened its doors to take you home.
rejoice….. and try to behave.
