Tribute to Daddy

My brother Gary and my niece Jenalee spoke at my dad's funeral. We videoed it but it didn't pick up the sound that well. You can hear it if you turn your speakers up really loud. I listened to it again and it was just as good as I remembered. They both did such a good job and I'm so glad we got it taped even if it is hard to hear.

I have stories to post later...stories and memories that we all shared over the weekend. I am so thankful to my dad and all that he taught me.

Gary quoted: "We are all destined to leave some kind of mark. We are all meant to walk a certain path, at a certain time, in a certain direction, for a certain purpose." My daddy definitely left a mark on each of his children and I will be eternally grateful for all that he was, and is, and all that I learned from him.
