Our Dad was an amazing man who had farming in his blood. All his life was spent loving the land and watching things grow that he made. Our Dad loved his family and friends. Laughing and always joking "If I pick on you that means I like you". He loved his home, his barn, tractor, playing cards and hard work. Seeing people smile from what he made in his barn made him smile too. There will be a huge void now that Dad's gone. But he always taught us to fight for what we want. And his spirit is always here with us. Papa we love you so much and you will be greatly missed.
