THANKS

First off i want to start by saying thanks to Pete, Robin, Rick(who i haven't seen in 12 years), Doug, Lola and a special thanks to Ray for coming to my papaw's viewing and funeral. Ray, thanks so much for taking the time to put together the video for us. it turned out great and was very emotional. Robin, thanks for being there for me on Monday night. my only regret is that i wasn't a better grandson. i didn't spend nearly enough time with him. i regret that. I'm glad i got to see him back at the beginning of the month all be it in the hospital. i chose not to go back up there to see him after the heart attack and stroke because i didn't want to remember him like that. that i do not regret. i will always remember him for his goofiness, from peanut butter bologna to hitting the mute button during commercials. i will remember the way the used to walk around like John Wayne and pull his imaginary guns from his side and how here in the past few years would come and rub my bald spot and then point at his and say "i have one too". i will never forget him.

i love you papaw.
