"A little phrase I learned. Dont walk behind me,I may not lead. Dont walk in front, I may not follow. Walk beside me and be my friend. Well in my thoughts were there again. Back at the old trailer,playing race cars in the front room,or at the mall for the big race(a mach1 against a rabbit) or out in the back yard sitting on the GrizzlyAdams picnic table with a nice camp fire. Me telling you about the family I want,You telling me about the house you would like to build. Thank You for letting me be your friend. "

"I am sorry for your loss. I was in rehab down at Lutheran homes in 08, Jeff would come and visit me every day. If anything I needed he would get it for me. I took him up on that offer, a few times. We reminisced about the old days and how we got to where we are now. He will be missed."
