Personal note from Misty, Brittany, Jaclyn, their husbands and kids.

He was all about his family couldn't see em enough. Very friendly and out going before his legs quit working right and his breathing got so bad. Loved to watch home videos and looking at pix of the grandkids. He loved us all unconditionally.
