I’m so sorry to hear that Uncle Stan has passed away. I’m living in Utah now, so will not be able to attend the funeral. I’m sure he’s up there and my mom Rene is happy to see him. As well as Randy’s late mom Mickey Lippock. (They all hung out in high school). Andy, I’m sorry for your loss. Your dad was one of a kind.
