Grandpa thank you so much for teaching me everything I know, teaching me what hard work is all about, and most of all thank you for
Being a man that a boy could look up to and idolize, you were definitely a role model if there ever was one. I’ll miss you more then words can say.

I an waving back to you, Dad. Thank you for the hug. I am a little out of words right now, so I am stealing some from Whitman. I love you.

When lilacs last in the dooryard bloom’d,
And the great star early droop’d in the western sky in the night,
I mourn’d, and yet shall mourn with ever-returning spring.

Hello Mrs. Slack & Family,
For the very short time that I had the pleasure of knowing Mr. Slack it was a fun time, I was looking forward to many more years of fun with him and learning from him but I am truly grateful that I got at least some time!
I will never forget him, will miss him! What a man!!
Omar.

My sincerest condolences to Webbie's family. I cherish the memories of playing with all the cousins at the Bacher reunion all those years ago. Then, we had all the time in the world ahead of us. By the comments above Webbie lived a very full & happy life. I will be thinking of his family, especially Marlene, this weekend as we bid farewell.

As a horse crazy teenager in 70's Webb and his grandfather (also Webb) always made sure there was a horse or pony on hand for me to ride. Webb let me ride his horse Diablo to meet up with my friends and ride back to the Mud Road for many trail rides. A lot of wonderful memories.
