Well they definately broke the mold with you pappy. I will forever cherish our talks and all the wisdom you shared. We never got to finish my lesson on my cacti, but I know you'll be with me & guide me in the right direction. Haley will hear lots of stories about her pappy & how she was his little munchkin.
