my papa was everything that a man should be…he would give the world for anyone and take nothing in return

my papa is not someone that can be easily forgoten even though he was a little grumpy at times he still did everything he could to make sure my family and his friends were happy

i will never forget the bingo nights and fishing trips with him and i will make sure his memorie lives on in my heart

it still seems so unreal that he is gone

a huge thank you to everyone that has signed this

i love you all

Sorry to hear about your dad and grandfather. I know he will be greatly missed.

Even though we didn’t live close I enjoyed talking with him on the phone and will miss his calls.

Give your mom an extra special hug for both of us.

The most loving and caring Dad any one person could ever have. I love you dearly and will miss you forever. I can’t belive that your gone, no more bingo nights, no more fishing trips. I am so thankful we were able to make our trip to California this summer. You truly were and still are in my heart the best Dad ever, you never questioned me, never doubted me and always stood beside me. I love you so very much…
