Happy 150th Birthday Grandpa Boatright!

150 they tell me. I think of you often and am pleased that you have been spared the shameful condition of the USA. After I see Jesus I want to see you. May be soon.

Hey there up in Heaven, Happy Birthday Hiram Boatright, glad you're there and not here. The times have been 'a changing and I don't think you'd like what you see, except for family that is. Anyhow you were one amazing man to have produced the grandson you have in Dan Chance. they don't make them like him anymore either.Sigh.

Another year has passed, so very quickly. Gone but not forgotten. God Bless.

I hope to see you when this is over.

Oh how I miss the days of my youth, many of them spent in your presence. I'd tell you more of my regrets but this is a "party line".

So very generous of you to share the rich history of your family and days gone by. I can feel the heat of the sun beating upon my head; taste the dust in my mouth from the old dirt road and see rural America through your eyes.Thank you and God Bless.

You've been in Heaven for 55 years today but you are still remembered and your legacy lives on in incredible people.

Oh how I miss you. Ask Jesus to give me clear guidance and to deal kindly with me.

Happy Birthday to an awesome man who will never be forgotten because he left this world with incredible people, especially Dan Chance.

Thank you for blessing this country with so many wonderful people. You will never be forgotten.

I love this and it is such a wonderful tribute to my great-grandfather. It has blessed my soul and it makes me feel connected to a man that I never knew. I'm the 3rd daughter of Bobby Boatright who is also Hiram's grandson and I've heard my daddy tell me stories of him all my life especially the one about "move your finger bro Boatright". Thank you Dan.

What a beautiful thing to do. I love it.
