Life story
Although he has left his earthly body, his spirit continues to carry the boundless love he had for us from the very beginning. To his children, he was indestructible, a hero who could do no wrong. He earned the respect of many and the unwavering support of his fellow man. His life was filled with experiences that others only dream of, and he could recount countless stories of his adventures. Yet if you asked him, we know he would say his greatest adventure was his family.
He selflessly served our country with honor in both the United States Army and the United States Marine Corps. His commitment to service reflected the strength of his character and his deep sense of duty to others.
He loved his children, grandchildren, and all of us with a deep and everlasting love. As a humble leader of our family, he accomplished something truly remarkable. He showed love endlessly and unconditionally, no matter what he was doing. We never had to wonder how he felt. He expressed his love clearly, and we could feel it deeply in our hearts. That is how we know he is still with us. That feeling remains.
In a world of so many evils, he effortlessly carried a light of happiness with him shining through his blue eyes, curly hair, extraordinary smile, and memorable laugh. He loved the Lord our God and entered eternal peace alongside his father Michael, mother Hazel, brother Dennis, and sister Linda.
Dad, until we meet again.
