Update from April 8, 2026

We wanted to take a moment and thank everyone who came to share stories and to celebrate my dad on Saturday. Having you here meant a lot to my mom, myself and our family. My dad would’ve loved seeing everyone enjoying themselves and visiting on such a beautiful day. Our hearts are still sad, but full!

Tomorrow would’ve been my dad’s 81st birthday. We will be celebrating and honoring his military service at the Sacramento Valley National Cemetery in Dixon at 12:30 (12:15 arrival time). We welcome all that would like to attend and share this special tribute with us.

We will be having lunch at a local restaurant after the short service. If anyone would like to join us, please text me at: 916-221-1068 so I can count you in the reservation. I’ll be calling later this afternoon to book.

Thank you again to all of my dad’s amazing family and friends. He was blessed to have so many beautiful people in his life and ours. 🙏🏼
