I love you dearly, miss you so very very much, but I do know you are with others that love you also and you are doing the Lord's work. Love you....till we meet again! FAMILIES ARE FOREVER!!!

My favorite memory is him and Stephen would come over and swim with Clayton. I would tell them that if they peed in the pool I would know. That I had put something in the pool that would turn the water blue. After asking Michelle one day if she thought that was true he decided to try it out. And low and behold the water didn't turn blue. He confessed to Michelle later what he had done. Every time I think of that it puts a smile on my face.

I remember having Heather and Eric in my classroom when they were much younger at Greenfield Elementary. I still remember his smile and what a well mannered boy he was. Never a problem, and very close to Heather. Privileged to have had you in my life.
