To my dearest daddy, what a shock to hear that you passed away. I wanted you to live forever! I miss you so much and love you to the moon and back. You were the best daddy that this girl would have ever wanted! Thank you for being there for mommy on Mother’s Day! Love you!

I remember Hub back when I was batboy for the Cold Spring Sprin gers in 1948 as good baseball person AND a very nice person. That year and many years after!

Grandpa, I miss you already. I have shed quite a few tears. I love you to the moon and back. As I have said before, heaven gained an amazing angel. Love you Hubby! <3<3<3

My father is the strongest man I will ever know. He dedicated his life to family. He will live on forever in my heart and in my children’s and their children’s heart. is legacy will reign on forever.
