“May you Rest In Peace. I may not have been part of the entirety of your life but I appreciate the little things you done for my daughter, just to see her smile, even if at times she was to much for you to handle. A very hard working man, who has always been a great provider, one with a very creative mind and skillful hands. I have a deep appreciation and respect for your service to our Country and to our freedoms. Fly high above the clouds to your eternal home.”
