What a wonderful person. I remember the times Slim would give me a ride or pick me up at the airport so I wouldn't have to leave my car at the airport. The great garden he planted year after year and shared with his neighbors. Slim didn't even mind that our dog at the time would pull the peas off that were close to the fence. He would say, "those are Shandy's".
Our condolences to Theresa, Danny, Barbara and everyone in the family. He will always be remembered.
