God saw him getting tired and a cure was not to be So He put His arms around him and whispered, "Come to Me." With tearful eyes we watched him suffer, And saw him slowly fade away. Although we loved him dearly, We could not make him stay. A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working hands put to rest, God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best. To a wonderful Husband, Father and Grandpa, May you Rest in Peace He is survived by his wife of 45 years, 4 children, 14 grandchildren, 2 brothers and 1 sister, and respected b many whom he met, he will be missed. There will be a viewing on Saturday, January 2, 2015 from 1:00 - 5:00 PM at Chapel of the Valley Mortuary.
