Praying for your family. I know he will missed but he will always be with you. I never remember a time he did not express his love for his family and grandchildren. Know you were loved and honored.
Daddy, my heart is content to know that you are not in any pain no more. You are the most “wonderful” dad in the world. Your love for music has been past down to many of your children and grand children. Your support throughout my life is the foundation that holds me strong today. Be happy in heaven, do not worry about us, we will see you soon. Love always and forever.
All of us at the Town Tooter office loved Mr. Case and looked forward to his visits to our office each week. We are all sorry for your loss. Mr. Case was a lovely, kind man and we always enjoyed him. May he be smiling and telling his stories and jokes in Heaven.
