~~My Dad~~
Dad died at 6:06 pm, on February 2, 1995.
I'm having a Jack Daniels in honor of Jack Davis.
Here's to you, Dad...

Dad was gentle, yet fierce at the same time. He was a poor man’s philosopher. He always held honesty as the highest virtue and instilled that into all us 6 kids. He stood by his convictions and his beliefs, and if you didn't agree...well, you were just wrong. But even if you were "wrong" you were always welcome in his house and always offered a beer at his table. He fought for his country, worked hard for his family, and "tried to be good so he could go to Heaven." And he loved my mother deeply and truly--in his own words, he loved Mom "like a hog loves slop." Yep, that was Jack C. Davis.
