My dearest family,

 

Our sweet Mac Daddy is watching us from heaven and saying, "Do not cry a tear for me for I am now with my savior Jesus Christ". He is now among G-d's angels looking over each and every one of you, a proud husband, a proud father, a proud grandfather, uncle and friend. While it was too early for any of us to lose him, G-d needed another angel among his midsts and wanted this sweet man to help him carry his word, to love one another, to care for one another, and to remember him fondly. He will be forever in our hearts. Be there for each other and make him proud for he will always walk among you and watch over you as your angel.
