    My deepest condolences to your wonderful family. I loved how proud you were to show off all your memorabilia in the man cave, or better known, the shed. I’m grateful for the many years we got to spend with you at yours and Elaine’s Christmas parties, even though we always made a mess you were happy to do it all over again the next year. You will be sincerely missed.
