This saddens my heart, he was a great man. I know its been a few years since i stopped and visited with him snd his beautiful wife, I am sure glad that I was able to know in my adult life, I will never forget the day he pulled into the gas station in weiser that I was working and he came in, and stopped for a minute and just looked at me, and then he continued on with his purchases, and he left, and within in a few minutes he came back in and says to me is your dad rodney wagnon, and I said yes he was, and from that day forward I see him when they were hauling cattle from up north, and then a few more of them came through. And I will never forget him, he was a great man, and I lost touch with them when I moved away from the Valley, rest in heaven with your parents and loved ones, and say hi to my grandparents and my dad I am sure you all are sitting around talking cattle up there.. love you all so much..
