And thanks to those who provided him with that special piece of dessert at lunch time that he would always talk about to us on the phone. We also want to say special thanks to Gary Fisher and his wife Elizabeth along with their two girls Sabrina and Katie. They were like family to father and he looked forward to their regular visits and also the countless rides around town.
