Our beloved father Doc Ford has passed away. It's fitting that it was Fathers Day week. He spent years going this week of Father's Day going to Canada fishing for those "virgin walleye". So now, he's free to fish and enjoy his afterlife.
We know how much he meant to the people of southwest virginia. His wishes were to have his ashes spread on a rock near a creek in the coal camp that he grew up in. We don't know if we are going to have a service or just a gathering of immediate family. We know hundreds of people will want to honor him because he spent his life taking care of the people in this area. We want you all to honor him by spending extra time with your own loved ones. Maybe go catch a fish or two.
