Tributes
Leave a tributeContinue to rest peacefully in heaven Dad.
You would have been 81 today. Happy birthday in heaven. Almost four years after you left us, not a day goes by when I don’t think of you or something you would have said or how you would have reacted to a situation. We are still frequently told by strangers how good you were to them. I miss you so much but I am enormously proud to call myself your daughter. Thanks Daddy for the good example you set for us. Enjoy your day in heaven. Love you forever. Glenna

Break not a flower nor inscribe a stone,
Nor when I'm gone speak in a Sunday voice
But be the usual selves that I have known.
Weep if you must,
Parting is hell,
But life goes on,
So sing as well.
