I will miss visiting with my dear friend. He was “Ol’ Blue Eyes” and I was “Red”. I really wanted to go to the memorial, but God decided he needed another Angel and took my mother to heaven on that Friday morning, so I was not able to attend. I will keep the family in my prayers and may he rest in peace.
