Our dad was a dad like no other. He held our family together, the foundation on which we all grew. The greatest Pop we could ever want for all our children. He loved them all dearly. A husband of 40 years to his wife. We knew how much he loved us all. Everyone who knew him, knew of his wit, his ability to joke and make you laugh. His laughter was contagious and he will be remembered for that.
Rest well on that mountain called heaven, that Cross you have to carry no more. Embrace those that went before you. Until we meet again dad.
