Papa Troy's Memorial service

thamks for all the good thoughts..What can I say he was 95....he was married 2xs he had 10 children, 32 Grandchildren, 22 Great Grandchildren, and 12 Great Great Grandchildren......He was a gruff cowboy to the adults but us kids he was a big huge marshmellow...they did a slid show at church with picture of him thru the years and there were some great ones...and they played a song that just made me cry...when I heard it years ago it reminded me of my Papa Troy....

this is so him....he taught me to rope(we used to practice in the riding pens never got real good at thislllI could alway rope a cousin though) and ride....and drive the old beat up red ford truck....and Hide n seek in the hay barn was all of our favoite game.....my cousins all feel the same about it him....We are home safe and sound the girls did great they loved him.....Emma and Jade had spent time up there this summer and they thought he was a blast even after Emma set off the life alert alarm.....My Mamaw narked her out to life allert and they told Emma never to push that button again unless it was an emergency....There were 72 family members and only about 16 missing....
