August 14, 2020 at 1:23 pmDad, I love you with all of my heart. I have many good memories growing up. You always provided for us and worked so hard to do so. I know it wasn’t easy, but you made it work. You always made sure we had fun Birthday parties, lots of Christmas gifts and so much love. You are my hero. Thank you for taking us to church every Sunday even when I didn’t want to go sometimes. You took me there and taught me to love the lord our savior. I know you are with him now and that gives me peace. God gives us so many promises and I know you will have no more sorrow, suffering or pain. I’ll see you again someday in heaven. I’ll miss you here on earth but happy you are not suffering anymore. Love, Kimmy

I’m so very sorry for your loss. Growing up in the neighborhood, your Dad was always interested in what was happening with all of the kids. He genuinely cared about us and was an involved parent. Prayers of comfort and peace to you all, he was a special man with a giving heart.

Prayers and sympathies from the Schmitt Family. We were your first neighbors. There are pics of Doug and I in the crib together. Too many memories. We sure missed Sycamore Street after we moved away. Take care.
