My deepest sympathy to you. Growing up you know that some people are special and they humbly are there supporting and caring. I always knew him as Kristy's dad. I honor him and cherish all the joyful times he provided to his daughters. The grounding force he was and the spirit who always lit up the room. I will never forget the times we had political debates at the kitchen table or the wonder I found in his creations. I mean the bird house built into the living room was simply genius! I had no idea he was in the Air Force. He was a proud patriot and that means so much. He was also a very proud husband and Father and I never got to see him with the Grandchildren but I bet that was magical. Beverly, I can only imagine the void you feel. I send you prayers and support of the highest kind. May a thousand Angels help lift your heart to keep breathing in the goodness of what you still have. His legacy lives on.
Sincerely, Julie Hilsen (Myers)
