Although we never had the pleasure of meeting "Cowboy Dad", we felt as if we knew him. We enjoyed stories about his travels and adventures for many years. I know everyone will miss him and his uncanny way of looking at life.
Time will lessen the pain but the memories will never fade.

Mike and Betty,
We were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of your father. Although we had the pleasure of meeting him only that one time, he was the type person you never forget. The day spent on the Tennessee river with all of you last summer will always be a cherished memory. I wish time and distance had allowed us to visit more often.
We send our heartfelt sympathy to you and your family.

Mike,
We were so sorry to hear about your father. Although it has been several years, we remember fondly his visits to the cabin on Elk River. If we had known he was back in Decatur we certainly would have made the trip to visit. Our prayers are with you. Please let us know if there is anything we can do.

FAREWELL TO EDDIE:
Although Eddie and I met casually several years ago, it was not until this past year that we became closer friends. We spent many afternoons reminiscing about years gone by and the irony of similar roads traveled. We both felt blessed to still have "our faculties and wits" at the ages of 91 and 88. I will miss you my friend. I'll keep the Dr. Peppers cold until we meet again.

What do you say about "Cowboy Dad"? He was the life of the party, the scholar in any conversation,the flirtatious gentleman, never met a stranger, avid Aggie fan, loved to travel and enjoyed the opportunity to play "devil's advocate". Over the last year he told us many times how he enjoyed life in Alabama; how appreciative he was of the love, care, and understanding he received from Mike and Betty; and how grateful he was that they allowed him to be an independent thinker assisting only in...

Eddie Hogan was one of a kind, true Aggie, friend and sometimes advisor. We will always remember his many stops (more like a family member on a visit) to the Joe Kotch store. We are definately going to miss his smiling face.
