Thank you to anyone and everyone who prayed for us, came to sign the book, gave a call, or just thought about our family over the last few days. It means alot to know we are blessed with good family, friends, and neighbors. He fought a long and hard fight, but he his now home with the Father, and family and friends of passing and there isnt anywhere else he would rather be.
