My heart hurts for you all but I know you have so many wonderful memories. He was a wonderful man and I thank the good Lord for letting me be able to call him my friend. Also for him taking the time to teach and imprint in my sons young mind the rights and wrongs of life and being the epitome of a true cowboy. Loved him.
