Legacy, patriarch, giving, selfless, pillar of the community, never turned anyone in need away and he never met a stranger are just a few things we can say about this man. The laughter, the scolding's and leadership will be missed forever. Because of one godly marriage (59 years) and two great parents, he had a bigger impact on hundreds of lives than anyone you will ever meet.
