Thank you for being my Dad, Dad. I’ll always hold you within.
By the way, how are the greens up there? Impossible to bogey right? I bet it feels great to hit one under par again!
I’m glad you’re where you wanted to be.
Peace and love to all of you!

We are with you in spirit for now. We’ll always remember his grand, tall entrance, ready smile and that finger lickin’ good chicken he brought to the tree trims. May you find peace in his peace. Peace and love, C&P

To my Father, the most loving man I have ever known in my life. You always let God direct your life and that was the key to all of your success, as a Father, as a Husband, and all of your endeavors. Thank you for being a Father to me, and never giving up on your son. I love you.

I will always remember Uncle Woody’s robust hugs! You could always tell that he was happy to see you with the smile that shows so well in the photo, and the big hug. He was a wonderful, gentle man who will be dearly missed. I love you, Uncle Woody
