Dear Susan and Wade,
I saw that your dad passed away. Your dad and mom were very special. My thoughts are with you at this difficult time.
Susan
Your father loyally visited Bay Point Elementary once a month for many years to recognize the school’s Optimist Club Citizen of the Month. He was recognized and loved by the children and he has been missed. Please accept our condolences.
