As a long time friend of his son Marv, I got to know “Chubby” I enjoyed his company. From one Veteran to another I salute him. To Marv, Jen, Matt I admired how you looked after him, he will be missed, I know he was so proud of all of you. I always enjoyed the time I spent with him attending Matt’s baseball games.
My respects Craig Johnson
