My favorite gentle giant! I will never forget the laughs, and how nervous you was before proposing to V. I love your spirit, how you was always willing to help anyone, & most importantly how you loved your family. I am definitely praying for your beautiful daughter, I will miss those stories about how proud you was to be Stacey's dad. True gem on earth! You will be missed, especially on Alabama game day!
