Thinking of the times we shared many of the same weddings together. He was wonderful to work with, and always smiling and upbeat. With sincere sympathy to the family, he was a nice person to have known, am so very sorry for your loss.##imported-begin##Mardi (formerly of Le Fleur Shoppe)##imported-end##
