"I will always cherish the sweet memories."

"I am so privileged to have had him in my life. Chad and I have enjoyed the outings we shared with him hiking on our land in Arkansas and the Christmas we went out to cut down our Christmas tree. I enjoyed being with him and hearing stories from his childhood about growing up during the depression and bing married to my Grandmother. I found his war stories interesting and exciting. I wish I had had more time with him."
