  • We are so very sorry for your loss. Dad was a great man. He was like a second dad to me, I lost my dad in 1992. I always called him dad. He was a wonderful man and we will miss him very much. Everyone that has met him loved him, that was the kind of man he was. I will miss you dad. RIP dad, we will meet again someday. Dad is in Heaven with my dad and the family members that has passed away before him. We are sending all our prayers and love to all. Rob & Lois McNally
