We are profoundly sad that we had to say goodbye to this funny, smart, witty and kind soul, but we are relieved that he is no longer in pain. During his 86 years on the earth, our father/grandfather lived a life of service as an educator and community leader. He was a true Christian who lived out his faith quietly, b ut resolutely.
