He was the best Dad ever and will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Please keep his friends and family in your thoughts during this difficult time.
In respect of his wishes, his family will be holding a private celebration in his memory. Arrangements by the Greely Funeral Home, 212 Washington Street, Gloucester.
