My friend Janis is posting this for me, I am not on Facebook.

I wanted to share a memory with you from when I was younger, when my uncle Deanie took me four wheeling for the first time in the famous Scout "Tonto". It made me feel like I was in the Big Boy's tough guy club. It stayed with me all of these years and I even wanted to name our beagle "Scout". He made all of us kids feel like each one of us was his favorite. I will miss the big smile he flashed at me every time I saw him. It makes me so sad that I will never see that again, but I close my eyes and there it is. We will miss him. We love you.
