He wasn't 83. Couldn't be. I recall when we helped him celebrate his 50th birthday in 1984, and he declared he would be counting backward from then on. So he must have died at 16.
What a full and wonderful 16 years he lived! Enviable career, wonderful marriage, great kids and grandkids!
I just wish I could of seen him more he did call me 2 weeks before his passing fly with the angels dad love you
