Opa dies on October 23, 2007. He gallantly fought emphysema for over 20 years but lost a hard-fought battle with pneumonia. His family was at his side as he died peacefully.
The family gathered to celebrate Opa's life with apple pie and satin freeze at BOBO's and a memorial dinner at McFarland's Restaurant ... his favorite.
HRC wrote a beautiful and meaningful obituary as food, flowers and cards poured in.
Opa was cremated and his ashes buried at a small private ceremony on October 26th.
Smiles for Opa ...
