I would like to send my condolences to a family that I was blessed to be apart of. He will be missed but nothing but good memories remain, from the legendary Easter Egg hunts in the backyard to his old train under the Christmas tree, to the cabin in the woods during hunting season. Even though time has made us grow apart I will always love you just the same.
