God saw that he was getting tired an a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around him and whispered, "Come with Me". With tearful eyes we watched him suffer, and saw him fade away. Although we loved him dearly, We could not make him stay. A golden heart stopped beating. A determined spirit was at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.... We will miss you Daddy. The Times-News(Twin Falls, ID), February 21, 2000
