You were one in a billion and we love and miss you more than you will ever know. Life will not be the same without you. Your sons will forever look up to you and will always thank you for instilling us with our "don't quit attitude." We will always be thankful for the love, guidance, empathy and support you gave to all those around you. Thank you for everything. We hope you look down at this "Motley Crew" of yours and have a laugh, smile, and shake your head in disbelief…because we are all products of you and your leadership. We love you. This isn't goodbye, it's…"see you later."
