Over the past 30+ years, I knew him as Horton, a friend who was always there to help my Mother after my father passed away many years ago. Every time I came home to visit, we always had a great chat in the driveway or in our house providing updates on what was happening in Liverpool and with his family. Our thoughts are with you as you deal with this loss. He will truly be missed by all.
