Rest in Peace Uncle Toby. For all the sadness I feel that I didn't get to properly say goodbye, have another conversation with you, or talk about another season of Bama football, I'm filled with joy that I got to know you, that I have great memories of you, and am thankful to the Lord that I got to call you family. Love you Uncle Toby!
