You meant so much to all of us, you were special and that's no lie. You brightened up the darkest day, and the cloudiest sky.
Your smile alone warmed hearts, your laugh was like music to hear. I would give absolutely anything, to have you well and standing near.
Not a second passes when you're not on our minds.
Your love we will never forget, the hurt will ease in time.
Many tears I have seen and cried they have all poured out like rain. I know that you are happy now and no longer in any pain.
-Cassie Mitchell-
We miss you, we think of you daily and we will keep your memory alive.
We love you, Mom and Dad.
In mourning the loss of a loved one you tend to forget to thank those people that were there during our time of grief.
We want to thank Tony King, Larry Ruvo and the family of Southern Wine and Spirits north and south, and all the friends and customers that he had in Northern Nevada. We want to thank Renown Hospital and their excellent staff for being there until his last moments. We want to thank Bricks Restaurant for the generous donation of their food they supplied. We want to thank the Eldarado Hotel and Casino and their wonderful staff for serving their wonderful food and wines at our son's reception. We want to thank all the friends that were there to support his wife and 2 sons he left behind. We want to thank my family and my wife's family for also being there and showing their love and support.
Thank you and God bless you all.
