All I keep thinking about today is our many conversations of going to Florida & the many many Chritmas’s that I walked In & you told me you saved me a seat beside you. I would respond I’ll be right there” as you smiled! I will miss those days very much. I know that you missed your beloved wife. I hope that you can now smile again as the two of you have reunited. Rest In Peace!!!! Love ya, Sharon Shelton

Dad-I know you were truly lost when Mom passed in March. After 70 years together how could you not be? I know you are much happier and at peace now that you have reunited with her. Now you can say and do all the things you were worried that perhaps you had not done before she left. Enjoy paradise. We love you and will miss you.
