Today, on your 85th birthday, we would be barbecuing tri-tip, your favorite, drinking Coors, your favorite, on your beautiful patio you built, on this wonderful fall day celebrating just like we always did.
Instead, tears filled with memories, and your death due to the fact people wanted to play a joke on the Sergeant and scare you about flying with a man you protested about getting in the plane with, Doug Moonen. Upon landing, give you a gold wing pin. The giver, Carl Sparks. I was there. I know.
