OBITUARY
Papa was a solid part of my life, but especially when growing up. I can remember many lunch trips to the BJ's, the Costco, and the McDonald's, where the workers all knew him. I remember visiting the Chick-fil-a when they had a promotion for their new sandwich; saying "I've got heat" instead of "I can take the heat". There were all the times he got snippy with me for moving while cutting my hair, all the games of mahjong... see morePapa was a solid part of my life, but especially when growing up. I can remember many lunch trips to the BJ's, the Costco, and the McDonald's, where the workers all knew him. I remember visiting the Chick-fil-a when they had a promotion for their new sandwich; saying "I've got heat" instead of "I can take the heat". There were all the times he got snippy with me for moving while cutting my hair, all the games of mahjong that I watched him play with my dad, all the Price is Right that'd play while I stayed at their house. He's created quite a legacy and family, and I'l really miss him.
