Though he may be gone from our sight, we know his spirit lives on
surrounding us in every beautiful sunrise and gentle breeze. He will be with
us, guiding us, loving us, laughing with us, as he is why we are here on this
beautiful earth. As his adoring wife told him as he started his journey to
Heaven, “go ahead and go to Heaven, we will be okay, God is calling you to go
fix the plumbing, but don’t do too good of a job, because we need the rain”.
We love you forever Papo, thank you for all your love.
