Dad, Because of the confidence you had in me I believed all my dreams could come true… I cannot really find the words to express the love I have Dad, in my heart, for you. Happy Father's Day in heaven to the best dad any girl could want. Although I am 46 years old you always thought I was still your little girl & "left the light on for me" until I was safe at home. I said two years ago on Father's Day "I love you & I know that the phone will stop ringing & the calls and checking in on me will no longer happen…" Well that day happened on 6-16-2017 😥💔I gained another angel… I will never hear the phone ring & hear your voice and telling me that you just wanted to "touch base with me" You've never disappointed me & were always there if I needed something/anything, 24/7/365…all girls should be as lucky as I am to have had a father like you… Love Ya Always & Forever… Maribeth, your little girl😘

Don, so fondly remembering good times, excursions and your love of music and dancing (must mention your fondness for old sayings and jokes to make us groan). You will be sadly missed.

Words can describe how much we will miss our best neighbor EVER. This man had every tool known to man. And always asking if we needed one of them. We loved listening to his stories. Over the last few much we witnessed such a beautiful expression of love from his children taking care of him. You were his angels. We offer our sympathy, and pray for peace and comfort. It won't ever be the same not having him next door, but we are honored that we had time to get to know such a wonderful man. RIP our dear friend and neighbor.
