    To Andy's Dear daughters: my childhood friends and neighbors..... I cannot even begin to tell you how special your Dad was to me. He routinely loaded up his vehicle with us all and we went ice skating! Till this day I am so grateful for the opportunity to learn to ice skate and to hang out with you all and my sister Terri at Rostraver. I feel for your loss. Your Dad was wonderful to us and such a kind man.

    I just wanted you all to know how much I appreciate the time your dad spent teaching Brain how to work on cars. Brian was an excellent body man and your father was such a big part of his life. Your dad lived such a full life and was such an amazing guy. Father's day will be hard this year for all of us. 😭Hugs my friends.
