The Granddaughter Team
So, in my story last week, I told you about my adopted granddaughter team. This week, I’d like to tell you how it all started. One night, I was driving Cassidy and Savannah around before Cassidy got her drivers’ license. They were trying to remember the first time they met each other. “It was […]
Coming Together
This week’s story is about a tragic car accident that happened last Monday. Three teenagers in one vehicle collided with a single driver at an intersection on the west side of town. Two of the teenagers were pronounced dead at the scene. My heart breaks for the victims and their families of the horrible […]
Happy Memorial Day 2017
This week’s story needs to be on what Memorial Day means to me. First let me acknowledge the brave men and women in our armed forces for their commitment and sacrifice. They have given much so we can enjoy the freedoms we have. I want to thank them and let them know how grateful […]
This is who we are
It was Monday morning, when I received a text from Brittany at the Teton Cancer Institute. “Hey Sir! Could you help with some gas funds for a patient traveling to Salt Lake for a consultation? I’m thinking somewhere in the range of $50 to $100” “Will bring it over today. I just received a […]

Happy Anniversary
35 years ago, I married by best friend and soul mate. We really didn’t plan to get married on my birthday, it just worked out that way. I do have to say though, it has been very easy for me to remember our anniversary. This will be the sixth anniversary I have spent […]
Happy Easter
I want to wish all of you a very Happy Easter and I hope you are making some wonderful memories with your families. It is truly one of my favorite holidays, and not just because it gives me the opportunity to eat a lot of chocolate and marshmallow Peeps. My Sister Patty posted […]
Happy Sweet Sixteen Cassidy
I wanted to write about our sweet little granddaughter turning sixteen on Wednesday. It’s hard to believe she has grown up that fast. We have had so much fun with her as you might have guessed from some of the previous stories. For the last few weeks, I have been going back […]
