Its fitting that he lived in Texas, as his heart was a big as the Texas skies. The man would give you the shirt off his back and would help out in a heartbeat if you asked. He always spoke well of people and raised an incredible family. He and Mom were married over 50 years. Rest in peace Dad as your wonderful kids will give Mom all the love and support she needs. You will always be loved and forever missed. Visitation will be held on Wednesday, November 29, 2017, from 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm at the Aria Irving Chapel. A graveside service will be held at the Dallas-Forth Worth National Cemetery with full military honors on Thursday, November 30, 2017, at 11:30 AM. Please send the family condolences and sign the guestbook on this site. Arrangements are under the direction of: Aria Cremation Service & Funeral Home 1820 N. Belt Line Road Irving, Texas 75061 972-607-4400
