My thoughts and prayers are with you all. It is a testament to the Love and family support that he was blessed with. I was so glad to see him at my mom"s celebration of life service. He was my first "Bonus" brother whom I loved.
He was so proud and loved his kids, as well as his grandchildren. The Love was great despite the distanc in miles between him and his family. Much love to you all as you move forward processing your grief and loss of this happy man.
