Hugs! Sending our condolences to your whole family :).
So deeply saddened by the passing of my dear Uncle Cut. I will always remember him as being so caring, kind, and having such a strong commitment to his family. He always made me feel special with our many conversations. Not only was he incredibly wise, he had the best stories of our family history and many other interesting topics. He will always have a special place in my heart. Sending my deepest sympathy to my cousins Donna, Anthony, Paul and all their family.
