Our dad was a proud man of his home and family. He loved traveling with his children and grandchildren. Every year, he attended the Arnold Palmer Invitational in Orlando, Fla.

Our family would like to thank Hospice, Excela Health, Lou Ann, Tina, Kathy, Angie and staff, Dr. Waas and staff for all of their care and compassion to our parents over the years.
