I am heartbroken over your loss wishing I could pause the time, wishing all this was something I never felt, asking my Lord to take control of the wheel. Not a day, not a minute, not an hour that goes by will I ever forget you. Wish I had one last chance to tell you how much we love you! My dad, my hero, somebody I always looked up to. Now you are my guardian angel, every now and then please tell me what you're up to. God needed you more than I do and I try my best to understand this life. I wish heaven had a cell phone so I could hear your voice and wise words of advise. Besides being my dad, you are a grandpa, son, brother, uncle, and a friend of many. The love and respect you got is more than plenty. You may not be physically here anymore but I will keep your memory alive in my heart. So many personal thoughts of you come to mind I'm not sure where to start. I Love you! Visitation will be held Friday, July 10, 2020, 9:00 am - 11:30 am at Felix H.
