So very sorry for your loss Jackie and John. I'm gonna miss your Dad being my neighbor. Such a sweet guy but onry in his own way. I would always tell him he had a green thumb when it came to him growing his vegetable garden and flowers, he would always tell me he enjoyed watching them grow. I always enjoyed his talks and stories that he would always tell me. But most of all he reminded me so much of my dad. Gonna miss you Bill😢
