You were a gentle giant walking among us. You never knew a stranger and greeted everyone you met with that same genuine smile. You were truly one of a kind. Although you came to this world with many obstacles to overcome, you gave of yourself to others, appreciated the little you had, and loved with a heart much bigger than yourself. We love you and will miss you every single day. Sing with the Angels, sweet brother, and rejoice with those who went before you. We will see you soon.
Love,
Sue, Bob and Barb
