Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
A loving and caring father. A man that worked hard all his life and provided well for his family. A friend and neighbor that was always willing to help. Had a great smile and super personality, but also the fire of the Irish and Scottish. He was a man that gave trust and respect while at the same time demanded the same. He, along with our mother, instilled many small and big virtues into the lives of his children. He will be greatly missed here on Earth, but only til we meet again in a greater place. I love you Daddy
Grandpa you are gunna be missed. I know you’re in a better place but that doesn’t take away from us missing you & wishing you were here . I love you.

Love was the reason for the ransom sacrifice, showing the great love that Jehovah & Jesus had for all of mankind. (John 316) What a wonderful gift we have been giving, to have the hope of seeing our loved ones once again. Death is the age-old enemy, we all meet as our journey end. It is never pleasant, when we loss someone we love. The pain at times, is so heart breaking, that our tears, keep on flowing. (Ps. 3418) Even the perfect man, JESUS CHRIST, Gave way to tears. So greatly grieved was he over the death of his friend, Lazarous. (John 1135) Without fear the way ahead
