Martha & Family.
Our prayers are with you. We had some good times under that tree. We will miss him and the funny things he would say to me and we would get each other going. I will miss them good times. Martha, he is with God now and he will be looking over you. And you two was the only ones that helped with putting our boat beside you. That shows you, you are good people. Always remember that. We will miss him, but I bet he is saying Joan are you being good or getting someone in trouble.
