Where is Mr Secretary? When I call you don't answer the phone. This is so hard for all of us. You are so deeply missed. Mom breaks down and starts talking to you. Th love & caring that you both had was so beautiful. She is lost ,Mom never stopped taking care of you no matter how tired she was. No matter what you were going through I never heard you complain. What a strong man you were. We miss you at the kitchen table making your famous salad, you were the only one that made it taste good. Good Night Daddy

Pete was a great person. Shared alot of great memories and great food. The best gardner their ever was. Also wine that would knock your socks off. I will never forget him and all he had done for me. Hopefully Pate and my grandfather are having fun and sharing good times. To the family may your memories out weigh your sadness.

R.I.P PETE YOU HAVE SHAPED MY LIFE IN WAYS I CAN NOT EXPLAIN IN MY EYES YOU WILL NEVER DIE YOU WILL LIVE ON IN MY MEMORY FOR EVER UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN YOUR GRETFUL SON IN LAW RON I WILL ALWYS LOVE YOU

A Grandfathers touch, A Grandfathers kiss, A grieving Grand Daughter, You're greatly missed. An empty house, An empty chair, A Grandfathers love, No longer there. A broken heart, Tear filled eye, Another soul to fill the sky. Many memories in my mind, Some I laugh, Some I cry. The times we shared, The laughs we had, Things I miss when I think of you Popa. Realizing that's all I have to hold on too, Only memories, Of what once was you. Missing your laugh, I will never again hear. That is the reality that fills me with so much fear. No more smile on your face, No more warmth of your embrace. The last hug, The last kiss, The last "goodbye" leaves me with one last wish... To have you Popa, here today, Never to leave your Grandaughter this way. A Grandfathers touch, A Grandpas kiss, A grieving Grandaughter, YOU'RE GREATLY MISSED!

R.I.P. Popa I love you very much. There is not a day that goes by that you are not on my mind.
