Please accept mine and Phyllis’s condolences
I was so sorry to hear of the passing of Golden although I never met Golden Mike talked about him all time on the job
He sure was blessed and had to be a great husband, Dad and grandfather
This is obvious if you have ever been around his children
I personally know of the good morals and spiritual beliefs of Mike and Shawn whom I’ve had the pleasure of working with
Goldie is a fine example of a great mom although I’ve never met her in person I feel as though I know her
God Bless all of you
Grover
