I have never known him to say a bad thing about anyone. He was a great role model of being a very hard worker and a very loving family man. Though, I wish I would have spend more time with him, I will forever remember the moments I did. Moments of him singing to us, moments of him letting me stand on his feet when we danced at events, and the sweet, goofy nicknames he had for so many. He would take us put-put golfing when we were young, and is one of the only people I know who was successful at teaching one of his cats to play fetch. There are so many more memorable times that we all had with him. I hope he knew how much we all loved him. He brought a lot of light to so many lives and will forever be missed.
