Mrs Verma, Buddy, and Dane; I enjoyed playing dominoes at the diner with "Riverboat". He was fun to play with even though we usually lost. We did about the same out at Laney's on thursday night. But all kidding asside, We shared stories about family and millitary and such. He loved his family that was obvious. He loved working on the boats too. He was a fine fisherman and a good friend. He will be missed. We wish you the best in this time.
