Our hearts go out to you & your family Terri. What a shock for you all. He was a great guy, always with a smile and offering a helping hand to everyone, even those poor guys trying to back their huge campers into a small spot. While we snickered, Archie was always out offering a hand. His bbg skills were amazing as we always wanted to know what was for dinner. Take care Terri
