So sorry to hear the loss of your husband and father. All I can remember is what a good bus driver and person he was. I think of all of the 19 years he drove the bus, I had him for my entire school life as well I am sure the rest of my family. The older kids got to sit in the back of the bus, so Andy and I were there for a few years. Rode with all you kids for years. The bus time was always fun! Even after school in my married life, he would always come and say hello and was so friendly. We will not be able to be at the funeral and it saddens me that I won’t be there. I would have loved to have seen all the kids again. Will be thinking of you all! - Posted by: Lois and Al Yablonski (Friend) on: Apr 04, 2018
