He was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend to many and a hard-working family man who strived to care for and provide for the people he loved. His dedication and strength to keep going despite his ongoing health problems never failed to amaze and inspire us and was a testament to the kind of man he was. We will miss him deeply, and the lessons and love he taught us will be with us until the rest of our days.
