Posted on: Thursday, September 11, 2014Dearest Kathy and family…it was a pleasure to have met your Dad and been invited to share in his life as a friend as well. He was a gentle soul who loved his family and extended that to the animals in his life as well. That speaks volumes for the man he was. My sister Janet and myself want to extend our deepest sympathies to the family in this most difficult time. He will be missed by all who knew him, and may he have the reward of peace and love as he overlooks all of you in your continued lives.
