We will miss you Dad. So many great memories and countless laughs we had that I will hold close to my heart forever. My Dad loved his family and friends. He lived his dream and moved to Arkansas to live by the lake, as he called it his home for the last 20 years. A special thank you to my sister Patty and brother Steve Willard for caring for Dad in his final years.
