I was fortunate to spend a few hours talking to Dan in person this Christmas. We shared stories about having been truckers: routes and truck stops, life on the road....and then family memories.

Later we talked on the phone a few weeks before he crossed over, about his upcoming trip through heaven's gates. It was a great conversation, one of the best I've had with anyone.

Loving my Family,
PD
