    Pam, Patti and Families, we are sorry that we weren’t here when your Dad passed as our memories go back with him a long time. The day we got married he tried to put a smoke bomb in our car but luckily it didn’t go off, and there was a lot of laughter going on as they waited for something that didn’t happen .
