Taken from the pamphlet that was given out at his funeral:
"...He had such a pleasant disposition and personality and always had a kind
word and beautiful smile to everyone. He always remembered to add, "Bless the
hands that prepared it" in every prayer before each and every meal. He never met
a stranger and would help anyone, anytime, anywhere! He was dedicated, loyal and
busy for the Lord each and everyday and many, many people have been touched by
his life. Not only did he preach it, he lived it."
