Smokey was my grandfather as I am Jack Fields daughter, Karen. I loved my grandfather because he introduced me and my family to the mountains of Idaho. We have wonderful memories of both Riggins and Sesash Meadows north of Warren. I have missed you grandpa over the past 10 years and will continue to miss your boyish spirit.

God bless....
