Papaw, I would like to take a moment to share with the other grandchildren memories that I will never forget. As a child I watched you in your garden every year having fun playing in the dirt. Your love of fishing,and nature. They might not know this about you but you have always loved going to the store just to talk to someone. I remember many times going with you to Maple Minit Shop to get Green Plums for all of us. I remember how you would make us Slip and Slides to play on down the big hills at the old house. No one in the world could have ask for a better PAPAW than you and I am so glad that you were mine all mine for a little while until Hannah Came and I had to share You with someone. These kids were not here to go to the Smokies in the Summer Time like I did and I am so thankful for that because I have those little memories that are all mine , but I promise to always tell them what a wonderful grandpaw that we all had. I will never fall to tell my son what a wonderful man and freind, and grandpapw you were to him. I LOVE YOU ALWAYS, MARLA
