I sure hope you had many awaiting you at the pearly gates.

I’ve always enjoyed cutting up with you almost my entire life. And you forever YANKING my chain. I always enjoyed laughing with you.

Your soul mate will miss you desperately! She loved you with all her heart.

Thank you for making 3 babies that my DAD got to be a grandfather to. He adored your children. That’s priceless in my heart.

RIP sweetheart! You will be missed!

My Dad was a great Husband, Father, Mentor and all around GREAT man. He was the one person in the whole world that I knew had my back. He would help me with anything. He has always been my hero. I adored him. I am so very lucky for the lessons that he taught me, lessons that I didn’t realize until years later. I was so blessed to spend so much time with him and to share a common hobby/ passion. He will forever be in my heart and I look forward to making him proud. I love you Dad. I already miss you. I’ll see you again one day. I can’t wait.

Bubba, we had a bunch of good times which all over ride the times when not so good. I know you are up there watching over us. You are missed and loved. The checkered flag is waving in honor of you.

Although I was not fortunate enough to know Mr. McDonald well, I have been fortunate enough to know what a wonderful man he was through one of the sons he raised, Scottie. I have never met a more generous, thoughtful or caring man than Scottie. I’ve also watched him with his kids and been able to see what a great dad he is, and I know that doesn’t just happen I am quite sure much of that came from his teachings from his dad. Scottie, I know your dad had to be so incredibly proud of the man you are and will continue to be. Please know that you, Casen and Addie as well as your entire family are in my thoughts and prayers. I wish I could be there with you as you honor the memory of your dad please know I’ll be with you in spirit!

I worked for Bubba back in the early 80’s he bought the company I was working for ( Elliott Transportation) and we went to work for McDonald Heavy Hauling. One of the loads I remember hauling was the boiler for the Fort Collins Brewery we had like 5 trucks bring up all the stuff for the new brewery. Fun times. R.I.P. Bubba
