From his girls:
Our father was the most loving, caring person we've ever met. He would do anything for anyone, especially his three girls. He was the one person who could make you laugh and keep you smiling. This man was more than our father; he was our world, and although he is no longer physically with us, our memories of him will keep him here with us in our hearts until we meet again.
We love you so much Daddy. Save a spot for us. Love, your daughters Christy, Lori, and Nikki.
