    Having spent a good portion of my teenage years at your home, your dad was always so welcoming and kind. Such a gentle soul. My heart breaks for your family and your loss.

    Mary and David, I am so sorry for your loss. Your dad was a great man. As a kid, I probably spent as much time at your house as I did at my own, and your parents were always so good to me. Your dad was so kind, and I will treasure the fond memories I have of him. May God Bless your family and give you strength through these difficult times.
