Your dad and I kept in touch with our Christmas letters. He was a very gracious man. When your mom died, he sent me a beautiful letter which I have kept to this day. Peace and Love. Your cousin Betty Hramiec
I worked with your dad at TACOM. Always had a smile and a kind hello. My condolences to your family.
What a loving person. My condolences to the family. We’ve lost another GOOD ONE. At all the family gatherings I most remember his smiling face and warm hugs.
