Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for the outpouring of love and support you've all shown our family this past month. The past 32 days have been the longest and shortest days we've ever had. Without all of your love, support, and prayers, the days of our lives would have been even harder.

Thank you to everyone that was able to attend dad's visitation, funeral, and/or celebration at the Purple Goose. We know many of you waited in line for quite awhile to pay your respects & the fact that you all chose to do that is something our family will hold close to our hearts. Those of you that traveled from afar, thank you for making the drive. There are a million other things more fun than driving hours (or days) for a funeral, but you did it for dad & we are so appreciative you chose to come.

Help us keep dad's legacy going strong: Help one another. Get outside everyday and enjoy nature. Find something to do and make it your passion. Love hard. Tell a joke AND take a joke.

I hope any time you see a classic car (or a hot rod as his grandgirls would say), pheasant, or deer OR anytime you drink a Busch Light, you'll think of dad & the amazing life he lived. 

Much love to all of you.
