I missed telling bad jokes with him I also miss when you used to come to Indiana would have to go on the hunt count Chocolate cereal so he could take it back to California
One of the best memories of the man I called my brother has to be when I saw him for the very first time. It was 1986, my sister Charlene, my brother (in-law) Jim and the newly born James Michael were in the kitchen. Being 6 years of age and not knowing who this man was with my sister made me wary. But, I carefully looked at his outfit ; pastel polo shirt, khaki pants and white sneakers with Velcro straps. I knew then that he would be the greatest brother , he didn’t know how to tie his shoes either. And I was right. I miss him every day but I know he is in a better place just waiting for us.
Our heartfelt condolence Charlene to you and the family. Auntie Ellen, Chenie and Christian
