Brother I will miss you. I think of all the good times we had as kids, the black eyes and fat lips that we seemed to trade very often, the great times we had fishing and drinking. I wish that you would have let me know about your problems, we are family and I would have helped. I plan to see both you, Dad and Jamie in a few years, maybe we can start again. I will see you through your children,who I want to stay in contact with. You are a great loss to the world. I love you.

It seems like yesterday that we played countless hours of intelevision boxing and watched my mothers wretched Cowboys win three of four Super Bowls on your big screen TV. You were a great friend to both my parents and a second Uncle Tom to Tiff, Trev and I. This was mildly confusing to me as a child and Pops just fit better anyways and that's who I remember you as. I know that I speak for all "the kids" when I say that you brought laughter, inspiration, and joy to our lives. We miss you already and I propose we make a deal, you look out for my people up there and I'll do my best to watch over your flock down here. Rest in peace Pops.

Pops, If good times and truly great friends were measured in dollars,I'd be a Billionare. I trust you always have known how much you and your family mean to Kathy and I, and especially our children. You always lived one day at a time and enjoyed one moment at a time and I thank God for allowing me to share so much with you. Please get JC,Dad,and Ant together to give me some "backbone" and the right words to somehow express how much I already miss you. Fortunately for me you will live forever in my Heart. My last cast will always be for you. Amen Brother
