You are and always will be the light of our family. Your laugh was pure and always lightened my often heavy load. You would call and hear all the chaos at my busy house and I knew you were shaking your head . Normally, not in judgement because you just weren’t that kind of guy (except with Emma) but at the difference between your house and mine. I will miss our late night phone calls . So many nights over the years in lonely hospital rooms.” Are you awake?” and the long talks about politics, chronic pain and illness, our children, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, mom and dad, shopping, home maintenance and moving, Linda and Tracy. Baseball and so much more you really shared with Dan (and Bill). You loved and cherished your family . I was jolted into reality again with your cancer diagnosis. Life can change in the twinkling of an eye. Our time with you the past few weeks was precious. You will always be in our hearts. ??
