Dad I love and miss you so much. I called Aunt Pat today and talked to her,she sounded great. Please tell everyone hello and we miss them.
Today my Dad would have been 84 years old. I am taking this time to remember Dad and all he stood for, including priding himself on his traditional roots. He spoke many times about life as a child growing up in Texas. He loved his family all his life and even has a twin sister. Her birthday is today and they were born 5 minutes apart. I truly miss my Dads reminiscing about good times in the Lone Star State and all that he did to help support the family progress. Dad's love for his family was solid and stable. He is truly missed and loved. ~ Steve Young
Dad I realy miss you alot, when I lost you I lost another part of my world. All the kids are getting together today and I wish you were here so I could give you a big hug and kiss. Miss you lots.
As we move into our second Fathers Day without dad, I want to take a moment to reflect upon him and light this special candle in honor of Fathers Day from my family and I. Dad has been missed by all of us the past year and three months and it seems I have been thinking about him more and more. He was such a great problem solver, as there were never any gray in his decision making. Recently, when tackling tougher decisions, I find myself asking, 'What would dad do?' He was a man of many words and stories and always lived up to his word. As we celebrate Fathers Day, 2010; Dad, this ones for you! Dad, we miss you! Happy Fathers Day! Sincerely, Steve Young
I loved Dad. I remember growing up Dad loved taking trips and being on the road. He would always remember all the places he had been before and it was almost like having a guided tour over what to me would have been a place I wouldn't have known. He always made what I thought to be big problems look easy to solve and it seemed like when I was around him, I had a since of confidence. Even though my wife, Linda & step-daughter, Carrie never met him, they always enjoyed talking with him on the phone. It seemed he always had time to make our day a little brighter with a pick-me-up or joke about a blue eyed blonde from Wichita or one of the many from his hat. Dad had a great love for animals. As a kid, we had a seimese cat named Whiskers that he talked to. Dad had a special love for country music and was one of Ernest Tubbs' biggest fan. He would sing like him when I was a kid. Looking back on Dad, he had a great love for family, especially his close family members. I remember one of his quotes; If I'm your friend, I'll be your friend for life, and I know he had many! His sincere personality will be truly missed. Dad we will always love and miss you here in good ol' Montana.
Dad you meant the world to me. I will realy miss you. I remember as a little girl that no matter what happened if dad was holding my finger I was alright. I remember one weekend we went to a state convention in Huntsville and mom took every thing but the kitchen sink, you just loaded it up and did all the cooking and cleaning while we had fun. I will alway hang jon to the good lmemories we had. Tell mom and William hello. We will for ever keep you in our hearts.
Well today we laid the goat down to rest his body, it was hard but we will get through this with the strength of God. I have only known Grandpa Goat for a short 7years but it was a fun and interesting 7years. I loved sitting next to him on the couch at a family function and I knew I was going to hear some sort of story rather it was real or not I'm not sure, never was a sure thing but I loved listening to him. He was like a kid with a huge imiganation and let it just run free with no care in the world. I'm so glad I could see him one last time and see him laugh one last time. Before we left the hospital that one last time he was talking about a blue eyed blonde nurse taking care of him.LOL He always talked about those blue eyed blondes and all along he had her with him her name was Mrs. Grandma Gene. She has been so good to him and always made sure he was taken care of. Thank you Mrs. Grandma Gene and Thank You Grandpa Goat for all the stories even though I'm still not sure what to believe and what not to. I love you and you will always be missed. You are the first and probably the last Grandpa Goat on this earth. LOve Always, Mandy and Brooke
I loved grandpa goat so much. I will never forget and will always miss spending the summer or many weekends building trains and playing dominoes with him. I would bake him chocolate chip cookies and he would teach me how to make something he liked to eat, I would not try butter milk with sardines and crackers. I loved traveling with him out of town. He would let me talk on his c.b. radio to truckers, and let me shift gears in his old green truck. I have heard many of stories form him some true and some who knows but they were always the same no mater how many times you heard them. I love you Grandpa goat and will always miss you. p.s. I hope you have a cat to talk to in heaven
Life is a fragile thing And it can change within an instant Nothing is safe from the effects of change No person or possession we're given The only things we can hold forever Are the memories in our hearts The loves we share upon this earth Before it comes our time to part So choose a pathway that brings you joy Take time for quiet moments each day Appreciate the challenges that strengthen your soul And the blessings God sends your way Don't let your heart be ruled by anger It's just not worth the stress For the tumult will only expand in your heart And crowd out happiness Live each day with wonder and gratitude For the beauty that surrounds you And share your abundance generously It'll ensure future blessings will surround you Meekly accept that life's journey will include Unexpected, soul-wrenching heartaches That will bruise your soul and alter the course You always imagined your life would take And when that happens you'll have the choice To embrace hope or hopelessness You can't avoid grief, but you can refuse to accept A lonely future of bitterness So choose to be grateful for each moment With the loved ones you've been given..."
I will always miss the old goat. I always enjoyed being around him. he was a fun person. I still remember the quote that he said til the night defore he died. " all I need is a blue eyed blonde to make it through my life." He was always telling me his crasy stories. I never told anyone but the old goat meant alot to me. I love you and I will see you soon. I can't believe it the Goat is ...... gone.
