  2. Well my friend. You are no longer in pain. You were always a great friend and coworker that I will never forget you were always there anytime I needed you. For 25 years we got to be good friends to where we considered you part of the family We got to go to many different courses together It is going to be very hard to get along without you. There are not enough words to say how much I’m going to miss seeing you anytime I’m out mowing or doing anything on the course and not seeing you there I could not have asked to have a better person to be there with me all these years. To his friends and all his family. My heart is crushed with his passing but I know he is in a better place and at peace. My sincere condolences.

  5. My hunting buddy for last 20 some years, glad we got out a few last times last fall, some days there was more sitting on a log shooting the breeze than hunting.
