Britches and my dad worked together for years on lawn mowers. He was like my 2nd dad and helped me alot thru alot of things. He was a big joker...loved to pick and joke even when he was sick and just got out of the hospital...well now him my dad and mom are up in heaven watching over us and probably laughing at us kids. Glad they are all together once again having a good time...they are our angels watching over us...
