Memories of

Describe what he looked like
  •  Tall, dark hair (never gray or white), blue eyes always smiling. Raspy voice. -Teri

Describe his personality
  • Friendly, very kind. Swore maybe 5 times, but every time it was a good laugh. Hard worker, had a big garden out back would help with the horses. Had patience, had to. -Teri

What is something you learned from him


What comes to mind when you think of him
  • Every time I went to his house he would grab my hand. His hands were big. It seemed like he had multiple birthdays a year. I remember going to his house the night he died. It was dark and me and my mom went and saw Becky. I was glad it finally happened cause he had been in his bed for years not able to do much. He would talk to those who had already died. He was ready. He was a great person. He would drive Grandma around town all day long all the time. He could barely fit in their new tan colored car. -Teri
