My sincere and heartfelt condolences to my entire family for your loss. My Uncle was an amazing man that lived every day to the fullest and made an impression upon everyone he met. He accomplished great things never settling for less and always striving to make significant changes for the betterment of others. He was strong, funny, serious, gentle, loving and involved in his family and his community but most of all a devoted patriot, a veteran that dearly loved his country. He was a proud man that I adored and loved. I took his advice many times and some tough love too. I'll never forget our talks and how he made me smile. He was wise and insightful, and took things to heart. He shared stories as examples and cared so much about right and wrong, good and bad, justice for all. I do know the heavens have gained a very special angel that's for sure. He's now and forever in my heart and memories. Our Heavenly father has called my Uncle to his home place to live again in eternal light and peace. He will be sorely missed but the comfort I feel knowing the legacy he left will live on through my family and their families for generations. May God Bless my entire family and give you strength in him with all my Love, Terrie
