You will be missed & loved always. I remember all the fun times you gave us from Little Rock and the lake, learning to fish & ski and enjoying our time on the boat. Las Vegas trips were always memorable. You were a constant and strong guiding force for me and my mother, who loved you dearly. Memories of your laugh and smile will keep me going.
