Dear Steve and family,
I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your father. May he rest in peace.
Gonna miss him dearly.
Sorry for your loss. He was a great man. I will never forget my time spent taking care if him at liberty village and the stories he shared. He always had a twinkle in his eye and was usually up to something that was mischievous. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
