McCabe Funeral Home

I have been a friend of Kristine's since we were 9 years old. Because of that, I have Mr Stribbell dotting sountless memories. Dinners at their house, rides to the Elks Club where Kristine and I worked when we were 13 or to youth groups, etc. He would have made a great TV Dad... the type who listened, remembered his own youthful years, was kind, and was inclusive. My strongest memories of him are of the Annual Father Daughter Dances at Mercy High School. It was always a fun dinner out with all our Dads and he was just such a good guy who you could wespect and stillwould make dorky Dad Jokes. He was always so proud of his girls, all dressed up and dancing and doting on them on that night each year. He and Mrs Stribbell were a perfect fit for each other and were such great examples to follow. I hope only goodthings and love for her as she and the whole family figure out how to move forward with such broken hearts.

I remember how welcoming your dad was when we'd go visit. He was always asking if we had enough to eat or needed another drink. He was selfless and loving like that. And funny... the man could crack a joke. I'm so sorry for your loss.
