Carole and JP, I am so very sorry to hear of the passing of your father. He certainly had a full and fruitful life and you two were his pride and joy. He loved talking about you both over his martini at our kitchen table. He often stopped by to share an evening libation with Carl and me. May you find comfort in your memories – from cocktail hour to the wonderful meals he used to prepare for friends and family. He loved life and it showed in all his actions. Blessing to you both.

I feel so honored to have known him. He was such a welcoming person. When he spoke to you, you had his attention. You could tell he spent his life in sales and with people because that he made everyone feel comfortable. JP and Carole, you were definitely an extension of him. I am so grateful that I had an opportunity to know him. My condolences and love to you both.
