my papaw was one hell of a guy. ill never forget when he was in the hospital and i was standing at the foot of his bed an he started making faces at me an when he was asked why he was doin that he replied "im trying to get a reaction out of her". he would always act silly an tell jokes just so he could get me gigglin because he loved to hear me giggle. he started callin me his giggle britches and would ask mom where giggle britches was. im gonna miss him so much and all the silly little things he would say and do. i love you papaw! ill always be your giggle britches.

My Dad was one of the most loving, caring and kind hearted person you could meet. He loved nothing more than helping other people. So many people loved him. I will cherish all of my memories of him. He wanted so bad to walk and go back to work. I thought we had a littlle more time left with him but God called him home. He suffered so much in the last couple of months of his life. I think God just saw he had had enough. I feel good in knowing he had given himself to Christ in the end and was ready to go with God. I will miss him so much. My heart is broken but I know he is in a better place than we are and is no longer in pain. He wanted to go home and kept saying that over and over. He is home now. He loved all of us so much.  REST IN PEACE DADDY!! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!  VICKIE THOMAS
