Dad, You were a great man. I always said if dad is speaking you better listen because he doesn't talk very much but when he does its important to listen. I will miss you so much. I know you are with Rodney which does bring some comfort. But I will miss you for the rest of my life. I love you daddy!! Maneika

One of my favorite moments was when I was a child Uncle Louis and Uncle Jackie made us tunnels in the snow. There are so many memories that its hard to recall just one. I am not looking forward to the Holidays because its not going to be the same without him. I love you Uncle Louis and miss you so much.
