Dad, you always had time for us, winter toboggan rides, blue moon pizzas, ymca basketball, years of baseball, construction of backyard fields and courts. I always looked forward to vacations and fishing with you. A true passion, that has passed down to your grandkids. You were always there for me. Thank you Dad for your good advice and guidance. Your careful thought and cool temperament are honorable in a man. Your work ethic is second to none, and was evident just last weekend all over the Wyoming house. From the tile floor to the meaningful decor to the custom block fixed on your bed that said " if your going to do it, go 100%." I admire your ability to concentrate under extreme vocal distraction. Never heard shut up or cussing for that matter from you. Another sign of character of a good man. Your belief in a good education has been passed down to David and Danielle. They know if they work hard now and attain their college degrees, they will open bigger doors in life and career. Thank you Dad. I will miss being in the same space as you Dad, but as we both know, our love and thoughts of each other are a comforting bond that will last forever. Special memories, like our last trip to Wyoming, will run through my mind daily. Your positive outlook and strong important decision making gives me strength and helps me through this difficult time. Your a man who cared for everybody and everything in your life Dad. I love you. Orris D
