Pappy was one awesome fella. I often worked on my car up at Bud’s house. Pappy was always sitting in his chair smoking his cigars. He would jump out of his chair to grab me tools and lend a helping hand. He always said, “what do you need boss.” What a pleasure it was to have known him. He was such a happy and helpful guy. His rewards will be great in heaven, he touched many lives, including my own.
