We ate lunch together about about 3 times a week when I was still in the Military. He thought I did'nt know that He and my daughter got married before he left to Korea, but I knew, and to this date, I still miss him and it was an honor to have had him as my son-in-law for just a couple of years that he and my daughter were married. From a cowboy to a cowboy, We will never forget you son, you are always thought of.

He was able to make about any situation laughable. From the day I joined the 20th to the day I left I could always call him a friend, drinking buddy, most of all someone I am honored to have served with.
