Your Buddy says
J, Marty, my buddy, I was wandering where you were. Was used to seeing you whenever I went to Lame Deer. I always thought about the time you worked in Ashland. The time that deer ran in front of you, causing you to lock em up and come to a screeching halt. And you really shook your fist at that buck and gave him a piece of your mind! LOL.. There were some other crazy happenings, but that one always comes to my mind. Have a good journey my friend.
Jolene Walkslast says
Jubilee and brothers. Your father was a good man. He took care of himself and never depended on anyone. He worked in the community constantly, he had his own home which he constantly made improvements to, paid his bills and never argued or fought with anyone. He greeted everyone crossed his path and no doubt helped out many moochers who wanted his hard earned money. May you inherit his traits and grow up to be independent hard working adults. Your father loved you, may he rest in peace.
Adrian Brian Goodbear says
