  • I am blessed and grateful to have had my grandfather for 40 years. I am honored my children and granddaughter had the privilege to have known you, also. RIP Grandpa

  • Having my grandparents for over 3 decades, and my son having his great-grandparents for nearly 2 decades, has been one of the greatest gifts of my life. Grandpa gave us a life of privilege through his intelligence, discipline, and generous heart. He was one of the smartest and hardest working men I’ve ever known, and I am deeply grateful for the work ethic, lessons, and dedication he instilled and passed down.

  • Mark and I are both privileged to have met and gotten to know both David and Fran through our friendship with their daughter Patty and son in law Chris. We shared many meals and happy memories with them. David was a very decent and kind man and we were blessed to spend time with him. He will be forever loved and missed by all those who know him and love him. May he rest in sweet eternal peace.
