Family was everything to him. His legacy will continue through his 46 grandchildren. He overcame many challenges and obstacles in his life but he rose above it through it all. He left a positive compass for us to follow. He planted seeds of love, guidance and success. No matter where he started, he came out on top. He conquered defeat on many levels. His life was a great contribution to everyone that he so lovingly helped. His imprint left a map for us to follow. He loved and appreciated life to the "fullest". His generous heart opened doors for anyone he helped, to go through.

He persevered when the going got tough, he got tougher. He was not weighed down by the struggles, he was a conqueror to "No End". Dad, you will be forever honored and treasured in our hearts. We look forward to being reunited on God's loving calender.
