Get Rhythm

Pappaw Joe passed away at 9:57 this morning.

Pappaw loved Johnny Cash. He was his idol. And, you know, I bet he spent his day just messing around on the guitar with Ol' Johnny.

Taiylor and I decided today that we needed to light the bell up tonight as a tribute. Words can not describe what was being felt as we stood there looking up at Pappaw's creation. Everyone who drives past there tonight, will see that and wonder. Those who knew who he was will know why only the bell is lit.

I came home to find a coke and starburst sitting on my doorstep. I have some pretty wonderful people in my life. It's comforting to know I have such a wonderful support system.

Pappaw,
I love you, and I'll be seeing ya. Have fun with Johnny, and make sure you build them one heck of a Christmas lights display up there. ;)

Rest in peace.
