He was an awesome man. Full of love for his wife and family. I am so honored to have known him and I will miss him dearly. The days will get easier but there will always be a spot in my heart that will be missing him. He was always telling jokes but I do have to admit I got the last one in. If there is anything I can do for the family please let me know. I’m just one of the kids. Nancie Buist
