I have known Stan and his wife Bobbie since I was 15 years old. I loved his sense of humor and hearing him laugh. I will so miss hearing him call me Door nail. What a sweetheart. My thoughts and prayers are with you Bobbie, Kody, Barry,and Brad. He is new again now doing the things he loved.
Love you guys,
Danielle

I loved hearing my dad , Wayne Watson, share stories of their childhood. Apparently, he and Boogie were best friends. My dad passed in 2016, I'm so glad he was able to visit Boogie during one of his last visits to Tennessee. It brought such laughter as he remembered the shenanigans of their youth. Thinking of you during this difficult time. I know my dad was thrilled to see him. Perhaps they are reminiscing now. ☺
