He was a humorous, fun and loving father, husband, grandfather, great grandfather, father-in-law, brother, uncle, cousin and friend to many.

He will forever be loved and deeply missed. However, we praise God that he's where he lived his life to get to. We know he's getting his shout on and rejoicing before the Lord. We can have peace and rest in knowing we will see him again.1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
