Dad, It's difficult knowing you are no longer here, but I know you are now where you wanted to be and that was to be with the love of your life! There aren't enough words to tell you how much I love you and how grateful I am for everything you have done for me! I love dad and I will always have you in my heart. In the words of Frank Sinatra, "You Did It Your Way!

Roberta, Judy and Nicki, I’m sorry I can’t be there for support, just know I thought the world of your Dad/Grandpa. I always enjoyed our conversations he was just so easy to talk to. He’s at peace and with your mom/grandmother with a big smile on his face. ??
