I’m so sorry for your loss. I know how you’re feeling. It’s so tough to lose those close to us but at the same time it’s comforting to know they are no longer in pain. I spent a lot of time with my dad and yours. Those two together had some great times and crazy stories. May he rest in peace.
Derek,
We are so sorry to hear about your dad. Even though we did not know him, knowing what kind of son he raised gives us an idea of how special he was. We will be out of town on Jan 2 & 3 and unable to celebrate his life with you but your family is and will be in our prayers!
Derek, Jody and Julie we are so sorry to hear about your dad passing. We work together for many years as meat cutters for national. We had some good times together.
