We send our most sincere condolences to you and all of your family members. God bless you all!
I truly love your father & mother. Since I was a child, they’d always made me feel as though I was part of your family. Your dad is one of those true gifts to the world, whose mere existence, made it a better place. I am saddened that he is no longer sharing his special light with us, but am relived that he is no longer suffering. God bless your family. We love you all.
