I have many memories of my dad, teaching my younger sister and I how to fish, and all the fishing trips we had. One Christmas giving me a hope chest that he made just for me and how proud he was when giving it to me cause he knew how bad I wanted one.
His sense humor and how he can make everyone in the room laugh with his stories and jokes. And a lasting memory of when my sister Patty brought home a kitten and the speech on how he disliked cats LOL how wrong he was!
As most of our family we have so many cherished memories of him............
