Just had another comforting thought regarding Jack: Dad Often spoke of Jack and what a good man he was. He enjoyed his company @Hollaman's. Would always share some kind of story when he got home after milking with Jack. Time will ease your sorrow and it will be eaiser to cope each and every day. Much Love Christine

I Love you and I miss you so much. My daughter will not have the same great time waiting on you to go to the river and just having her papaw around but I know you will be watching over her. I loved you more than I ever told you papaw and I want you to know that you helped me to become a better person. I love you
