Not sure what to say?

Bartley's,I did this same thing a few days ago! I told him I wouldn't say anything to embarass him....but I guess I did and he dumped it! Roy and I started in the second grade!To say I have memories....can fill a book! I'll just say Happy Trails here with a smile and a tear in my eye! Loved the Boy and will really miss his harrassment!

My image of Chris's Dad..(we didnt call him Roy....LOL) was that of a very stable, strong, loving father,,very much like my own..Chris and I were very fortunate to have both our parents growing up and I spent many a days hanging out at the Bartleys, he was respected ..and represents in my mind a great example of an outstanding "DAD" My condolences go out to the family as I know he will be missed by alot.Please share the good times and celebrate his life today.............JILL SCOTT
