If you knew him well you pretty much knew he was not going to call you by your name. He had a way of coming up with a special name for you. He had a way of lifting your spirits whenever he was around and he could make just about anyone laugh. He was a beloved father, son, brother, uncle and dear friend to many. He will be greatly missed.
