It’s hard to find the words to say goodbye to someone who meant so much, even though life took us on different paths in recent years. The memories of his kindness, laughter, and the bond we once shared will stay with me always. To his loving wife and three beautiful daughters, my heart aches for your loss. He was so proud of you all and loved you deeply. I find some comfort in thinking that he is reunited with his mother in heaven—a bond renewed in a place of peace. May you all find strength in each other and in the love he left behind.
