will never be forgotten.
That special smile, that caring heart, that warm embrace, your patience, your kindness, your humor and your calm.
He was a hardworking, strong, loving, gentle man. He was an avid gardener, who enjoyed the outdoors. He spent much of his time tending to his gardens, orchards, and vineyards. Amongst his many hobbies, he enjoyed making wine, surrounded by his closest friends, and family.
He would say, “I may not be rich in money but I am rich in family.” Your legacy and your imprint will remain in our hearts forever.
There are no words to express his influence in our lives.
We will always remember you Dad because they’ll never be another one to replace you in our hearts, and the love we will always have for you, a love without end.
