December 8, 2016 at 4:15 amI’m so very sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. He was always so funny. I loved his sense of humor. He had this witty way of being hilariously descriptive about things. It could be the most boring subject for anyone else to talk about but when he talked about it he would have you rolling on the floor in hysterical laughter. I didn’t get to talk to him very often but he will be very missed. Love you guys!
