A note from his grandson Skyler stated; Who would have thought that he would be leaving us this soon. That’s what I thought when I held his hand and said goodbye. But I now realize that he never left he still lives in us, he would always be happy. But he was even happier with a beer in his hand. He was there when things got rough. He helped me realize that life is precious and you always no matter what have to live everyday not like it is the last but like it’s the first day of your life. I’ll miss you so much and I’ll be the man you always knew I was. I love you papa forever and always.
