On November 8th 2020, the almighty God said, it's time to join your family my son. So I left to join my beloved wife, Linda and daughter Julie, that I have missed so much. I was sad to leave my sons, Keith and Greg and all my grandchildren and siblings. Knowing that I would see them up here again someday, made it a little easier.
