My papa was the best papa anybody could ever have. Now I am going to tell you the reasons why. My papa took me to look at the beach if I was mad, upset or even just for the heck of it. It was always such a gorgeous view. Sometimes if my friends were over he would take us in the Volkswagon and we would feel the air blow as it went by. I loved the way we would laugh together when he told me the funniest jokes ever. I also loved the way he would talk to me when I was lonely. I love the way he loved me and I am sure he is playing golf with friends and family up in heaven. He filled our hearts with love and laughter but at least we know he is not in pain. But if you believe in him just like I do, you will see he’ll always love you!

My Papa was born on December 18, 1939 and passed away on July 10, 2002 .I know he is heaven right now because he was kind, such a helpful man and just had a great personality. Right now I would really like to take this time to thank Uncle Mark, Nana, and my mom for really helping my grandpa. I would like to thank Nicole Isler my best friend in the whole entire world along with Erica Pellegrini for always being at my side whenever I was down. I would like to thank the rest of the people for coming and me knowing that you guys really loved him and I bet he knows that as well. Thank you! We love you papa.
