If you¹re reading this, you realize we¹ve lost one more of ³The Greatest Generation.² He is ³Pop² to more than you can count, and ³Grampa² to three he helped raise, and six more who did not share his blood or his name, but
still had his heart. Eighty-four years of saying more with his hands than his voice, Pop¹s legacy is one of a good, strong and honest man. He did the
best he could with what he had, gave freely to anyone who needed it, and held his head high to the end of days.
