My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Goat was certainly a unique character and had the ability to always make people laugh. I worked with him thru FSA for many years and in spite of his being such a colorful character always found him to be a kind and understanding person. There will never be another!

My sympathy is extended to each family member, friend and acquaintance.
Although I I was not as closely acquainted with Goat as some, I have always heard so many good things about him. He was a friend of my late husband, Sammy Joe Pittman, and he always spoke so very highly of him.
May God bring comfort to each in your grief.

November 12, 2012

Goat, you are surely going to be missed. The trail rides will never be the same. Thank you for all the laughter you have given us. You have made us laugh until we cried. Now we will cry because you are not there to make us laugh. I am so happy I was blessed to know you. Love, Pat Laws

Goat was a real friend to me. He will be missed but his memory will live in my many kind thoughts of him. Last winter Goat let me dig a pear tree sprout, I nurtured it all year and yesterday I planted it as a tribute to him. I loved him and will miss him.
