A really fine man. He was a wonderful person
It's taken me awhile to figure out what I wanted to say about this person who came into my life first as a boss and then as a friend and father figure after I lost my own father. He was a very special man who was always there to listen and accepted me in his family and share them with myself and my family. I love and will miss him more than words can say. Rest in peace and enjoy reuniting with the love of your life.
