Poppy and my father were close friends since kindergarten. I loved hearing stories of him and my father when they were younger. Being in his presence always made me feel closer to my now deceased father. Poppy was full of love and life and I will always cherish many good memories of him. One of my favorites is when his family visited us in Georgia. We made instruments out of tinkertoys, and put some jazzy music on the stereo. We all just laughed and played those crazy tinkertoys. Later in life , we became reconnected after my Dad passed. We grew closer than I could have ever imagined. My heart is hurting for Ellen, Denise, and Paul and their families. At least I can take comfort in knowing he is with Dad. His loving, caring spirit will be greatly missed.
