Julia, we are so sorry to hear about your loss. We are the neighbors just across the street from where your dad lived. Our grand-daughters always loved going over and visiting with your dad and talking to him, they have been over there as well sometimes when you were helping your dad with his garden and his yard work. We have missed him doing his daily walks when he was able to. He will be greatly missed around by a lot of us in the neighborhood. We were just talking to Angela who lives in the house next door on Sat, and were wondering how he was doing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Russell and Valerie Vaughn
