Thoughts are with you and your loss . I only heard stories about your father, we never met. He sounded like a very loving man. He has a wonderful daughter to carry on his legacy .

Rest in Eternal Peace Dad. As a father you were very strict and as young children, of course, we didn't like it. As we grew and had children of our own we appreciated the fact that the discipline you instilled in us shaped our lives and made us into the strong and responsible people we are today. You had a good and long life and I know you were tired and ready to go at the end. You did it your way! You were loved and will be missed by all of us - Your Family
