I was very privileged to have a wonderful father in law. I would not trade him for anyone else. I will miss watching him have that special bond with my children. My children adored him as well as I. I know that he is back in the arms of Connie and that is very comforting.

I will always see my Father's beautiful smile every time I think of him. He would always giggle whenever I say "How are you doing fat man." Dad will be so missed, but there is so much comfort in knowing he is now with my Mom where he belongs.
Love you Dad,
Annie

Dearest JoElaine, Annie & family, We have only fond memories of your Dad & Mom. They took care of Jay & gave me gas to get to work.Jay always had fun at their house, & I believe he ate more food there then he did at home. Whenever we were there, it was talking, laughing & yelling about something. To this day,we consider the house next to us, Tom & Connie's House. There are no words to express our deepest sympathy. Love Liz, Artie & Jay Slack
