2 Dec 2021My deepest sympathy for all the family and friends of “one of the good ones”. I only knew “dad” thru the auto parts business, but when my husband passed a few years ago, he was there pedaling “hope”!! He never came into my parts store without finding me and askin if anybody had told me that they loved me today? And always left with a Luv ya girl!! He will greatly missed!!! May God wrap you all in his arms and give you peace, knowing that he can breathe easy, and hug Holli again!
