He was a huge Redskin Fan, and showed that by the clothes he wore. He was so outgoing and friendly everyone he met from the bank teller to the guy in the farmers market selling tomatoes was greeted with a smile and laughter, and boy did he love to talk.

His Journey

Don't think of him as gone.

Life holds so many facets this earth is only one.

Just think of him as resting from the sorrows and the tears in a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days or years.

Think how he must be wishing that we could know today how nothing but our sadness can really pass away and think of him as living in the hearts of those he touched!

For nothing loved is everlasting and he was loved so much.
