Debbie and family. Our sincerest prayers and condolences to you on the loss of a wonderful man. I loved to sit and listen to him talk about history and his life experiences. He often spoke to Graham about the love of baseball and was always giving him tips when seeing him. He is now at peace and no longer in pain. We will miss talking to him when we phone! Love you always!
