“Daddy never was a fancy man, just a true country boy at heart. His passion was for America and every single police officer. He bled red, white, and blue. And if anyone knew my daddy he was going to make you laugh with his sense of humor. He told me he talked to God and I am sure somewhere in that conversation he asked if there were mud holes and dune buggies in heaven. I know all the stray kitties will miss his daily trips to town to feed them- but we will surely miss him more. Rest well Daddy.” 2 Corinthians 5
