To his children:
Your dad was such a nice guy. He came in and did all of his grocery shopping in at my kroger store in Findlay. He always rode the electric cart and filled one cart completely full, bring that one up to the service desk and park it, then go out once again and finish the rest of his shopping. when he was still living in Benton Ridge, the gentleman who would bring him to the store, would always sit out in the car and wait on him along with his Dog. boy, your dad loved that dog and bought so much food for him. i actally went out to the car one day with your dad to help load up groceries so i got to met his baby. I loved visiting with your dad, and it was nice that after he moved to the good samaritan home, that he had a really nice young guy that came in and assisted your dad with his shopping. I will truly miss your dad and his shopping expeditions. toby weeks
