Our dad was a loving and devoted husband, father, and grandfather. His joy in life was his family and his tremendous love for Jesus Christ. He craved the Word of God and shared his love of God with everyone around him.
Our dad was a hard worker; diligent and responsible. He always sought to provide for his family, worked hard to raise his family, and offered them the best he could.
Our dad was a good husband and great companion for our mom. He was her friend and patiently listened to her. She was always the talker and he the quiet and attentive listener. Dad was always and continues to be protective of her.
He was the greatest cheerleader for his children, always reminding them of their worth and encouraging them to do and be their best. He adored his grandchildren and found most joy in their presence.
He will be forever loved and forever missed by his family.
Dad, God has you in his keeping. We have you in our hearts.
