To Dad:
You will surely be missed as time has stopped for all of us. You made us proud to be your children and we stand in awe of your many talents and being the provider that you were. We will have our own void that only you could fill. Your sense of humor will live on in all of us as will your legacy.
The Sands of Time
When born, you are given a measure of sand – how much or how little no one knows. As long as the sand run?s your clock of life runs, use it wisely, put no faith in tomorrow, do what you have to do today. For once the sand is gone your clock of life is stilled, and no power on earth can restart the hand of time.
A memorial service will be held on April 1, 2015 at 6pm at Michels & Lundquist Funeral Home, 5228 Trouble Creek Road, New Port Richey. Friends and customers are welcome. Online condolences may be offered at www.michels&lundquist.com
Although I never met your father he sounded like a true "Renaissance Man!"
From his on line memorial and what I've heard over the years from my friend Bruce he sounded like he really lived his life fully. A larger than life human being to his family and a pillar to his community!
A true friend to all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
With dignity and respect to the family,

I may not have truthfully known you as well as I would have liked, but I do know the legacy you leave behind. Your daughters, your sons, including my father Bruce are a reflection of you. You were truly a remarkably talented man. I see you in my father in the talents and passions that you have passed down to him. I love you and am honored to be apart of your legacy.
