Rob and Beth, I know he must’ve been so proud of all of you. So nice that he got to see Page and Shawn graduate. You are very blessed indeed to have had him for 91 years, but it’s always too soon. We will keep all of you in our prayers. my dad was also very fond of the moose lodge, maybe they can have a root beer together in heaven!
