This man has been like a father to me, there are no words that I can say of how much I will miss him. He was such an inspiration. The love he showed us so many others was a blessing. I love you pops.

Always had a smile on his face with a wide open sensible view of the world. Talented and smart, there was nothing he couldn’t make with his hands. I will always miss his laugh but more importantly his love of our family.
