    He'd often say that the Marine Corps made me who I am, and my reply was simple...No dad you created the steal that the Corps put a fine blade on. Without a doubt he was the hardest man I ever worked for including all those Drill Instructors at bootcamp and I am eternally grateful he was my father.
    Thank yall for your words.

    my wife’s grandfather passed away last night.... WWII vet, served in the Navy in the pacific. Raised 2 children of his own and sent a foster child through Tulane medical school.... a great supporter of St Judes even in his passing as a portion of his estate will go there to continue supporting them.

    He practically raised mrs kcal as her dad was an otr truck driver and often away.

    He was our moral compass and one of the best men I’ve known

    I will miss him
