    My father will be missed by me, my daughters, my grandchildren and my great-grand children. He was the rock of the family. Our family was the biggest joy of his life. His love knew no bounds. He was well known in the communities of Brentwood, Knoxville, and Allentown as fun-loving, but also reliable and helpful to everyone that knew him.
