To Uncle Cub,

It was hard to be around you and not smile. You enjoyed life and wanted those around you to share the enjoyment. You generally suceeded.

We are sorry you are no longer here with the rest of us, but take comfort that you are again back with Edna. After 40 years I am sure you have a lot of life's memories to share.

Love Neil (& Donna) Wiley

P.S. Proceed carefully, I suspect you will again be held acountable by Grandma Lucy.
