A favorite memory is all of us together at the hospital, overnight, waiting for Avery to make her grand entrance! You “fixing” Jessie’s pillow(you hadn’t developed that “bedside manner just yet), us all giggling in the dark as mom rattled her bottles of Tylenol and melatonin in her purse.. y’all laughing at the snoring lady sleeping on the cold, hard floor
Your prescience is greatly missed! We will always love you!
I know so many people will think they will never see you again but I know I will love you Dad ?
I am so sad to hear you have left us. You will truly be missed. You could always make me laugh, starting from the first time I met you in the 6th grade to you and Luke telling me about trying to Teepee my house and our dog trapping y’all in a tree. Rest In Peace my Friend.

I always come back here once in a while. You were the best dad ever. Mom, Hunter, Hadley, Holden, and I miss you so so so much. Dad, I love you.
