Katie called him "Papa" and she will miss playing with him in the yard. Our baby Autumn will miss her Papa, everyday he would bring her a Hershey candy bar from the store without fail. He was also exceptionally proud of his two nieces, Heather & Kari Haywood. They will miss him terribly. He will be sadly missed by his friends and family. Till we meet again, WE LOVE YOU!
