I love you Paw Paw and I will miss you always. I remember the summers when Brian and I came to visit you. I remember the times you came to Alabama to visit us and take us places. I also remember you used to tease us that you didn't come to visit us you came to eat steak at Whiteway Restaurant. You are forever in my heart. I love you!

Your Grandaughter,

Uncle Don- it was so many years ago, but I'll always have the memories of your huge smile as you laughed and played with all us kids. You were one of a kind, and that smile will always be what I'll remember.

Papaw, I am going to miss you. I learned a lot from you. You are the one who taught me how to swim, drive, clean my room, ride a 3-wheeler and a 4-wheeler, and you also wouldn't let me quit school back when I wanted to be one of the cool kids. If it hadn't been for you I wouldn't even know where I would be today. I have learned that a child learns a lot about life through what they see. You set the example for me to follow and I will also be teaching your great grandchildren a lot of things I learned from you. You was always proud of me for doing a good job raising the kids. I learned a lot of that from you.
I miss you a lot we will always remember you. We love you, Brian, Zachary, Sarah, Elijah
