My heart goes out to you all during this difficult time. I will always remember your dads jokes and laughter and the kind man he was! I remember when your mom was dealing with her health issues, the love and care he showed your mom was beautiful...pure love! I know the past few years have been difficult but the amazing love that was given to him to make the past years as normal as possible is beyond words. He has now joined the love of his life in heaven. I am here if there is anything I can do. Love you! Tammy
