Today Little Texas mourns one of it's own.You gave more to our lives than you ever took from it. Your big heart and contagious laugh is only part of what you will be remembered for. You were the first one to lend a helping hand and the first one to give a smile. We love you Big Guy. You will be in the hearts of every one who's lives you have touched. My love for you will go on living. Rest in Peace.

Today my friend Dennis Maddox died. Some of you might know him and some of you might not. My heart is heavy with this loss and my love goes out to his family and loved ones. He was a good hearted person who loved life, loved to laugh, loved good food and loved people. He always was smiling and making jokes about everyt...hing. He had a personality you would never forget. He helped anyone who asked him and loved his family and friends. He will be deeply missed by the people who knew him.

I am writing this now as a little memorial to him. Life is so short and one day we all will pass on like Dennis. If there is someone or something you need to make right or say to somebody you know, please don't wait until its too late. I wish I could have told him one more time that he was my friend and I loved him even though he knew that anyway. Please keep his family in your prayers and thank you for your time to read this. Please leave a comment if you would like to say something about him.
