His wish was to be buried next to his wife in Canada. Dad, you will be greatly missed! I pray that you are now at peace and no longer in pain. The girls will really miss their Papa. I know how proud you were of them and I will make sure they continue to do well in school and grow up to be wonderful women. I will also make sure Jr. is taken care of. Dad, I miss you and love you.
