As I, Patty Ward, write this, my heart is selfishly sad. For my dad, I am happy, as he is rejoicing in Heaven with God and reunited with those who passed before him.
My brother, Chuck; sister, Christine, and I are incredibly happy for the loving care he received and want to thank the staff at Lake Eustis Health and Rehabilitation Center in Florida.
When he was young, Dad was a member of the Boy Scouts. He also enjoyed photography and developing pictures. Later in life he did weddings, dance studio pictures, little league teams, senior pictures and more. Dad was a member and Past Master Councilor of Whitehall Chapter Order of DeMolay in Ohio.
Our Dad was an outdoorsman through and through. He loved being out in the country, hunting, fishing, and spending time with his horses. After a day out hunting in the woods, he loved coming inside to hot, fresh baked cookies and a glass of ice-cold milk.
He and Carol loved to go dancing, spending time with their many close friends and going to church.
Dad also loved reading books, westerns, and history, however, he mostly loved to read his Bible. Every morning and every evening, he would spend hours reading God’s Written Word and fellowshipping with Jesus.
A Celebration of Life will be held later in July. Details will be given very soon.
In lieu of flowers, please make contributions to any Church of your choice, a ministry or to the Humane Society in your area.
