Believe your gone. Janet we are here for you
If you need anything let us know – love Dale and Patty
Janet,
One of my many memories of Tony is of him plucking feathers from a turkey in my dining room. I am not sure who shot this wild turkey either he or Dale did, but the memory of him cleaning it in my dining room will always make me laugh.
He was always taking Hunter fishing and Hunter still talks about this.
He was always willing to help when needed.
You will be missed Tony but never forgotten.
I am always here for you Janet.
Love, hugs and prayers.
