Nu Nu loved the Lord, and was a loving husband, father, and grandfather who enjoyed spending time with his family, trawling and loved to laugh. He will be greatly missed by his family and all who knew him. And he would like to leave you with two of his favorite sayings:
“For the Child of God, dying is easy; living is hard.” and “Politicians shake hands; Brother’s hug.”
In lieu of flowers, the family request arrangements be house plants.
