You shipped out right before I was born and died not four months later... I never had the chance to know you but was told that you were a good man. Unfortunately there is one less of those in a world where there is not enough of them. Just know you are thought of and talked about with love and God Bless...

Oh and by the way ... THANK YOU!!!

From his niece,
