Thank you all for the prayers, thoughts and condolences. It is a very difficult and tragic loss for everyone who's life he touched. We held his wake in the "Old Neighborhood funeral parlor (Highwood, IL)" and the Funeral service/Mass was at Saint James, where he and I went to grade school. He was also married there and it was the "family" Church even though we had all moved away.

He was a serious Motorcycle enthusiast and racer, so we asked to put his Modern Indian Roadmaster in the funeral home and they graciously accommodated. It was the first time that this had been done. I lead the procession to the Church and Cemetery with his Motorcycle.
