Drinking finally got the best of him and cirrhosis of the liver was more than he could overcome. I can count on one hand how many men of his great charactor ive ever met in life. The first time we met he pulled my truck out of a ditch which required the use of his backhoe. Not willing to take my money for repayment he just told me to help out the next person and keep the chain of good hearted deeds alive. We became good friends and later him and his family became like my own. I was many miles away from home and they made me feel as if I were always part of theirs. The years eventually brought me back to Texas, but ill never forget the many good deeds this man did for me in the time I was lucky enough to spend with him. I could only hope to be a quarter of the man he was. He was truly a great man and may he R.I.P.

A very touching story, I'm sorry to hear that. I'm glad you shared that with us though.

Great song also!

I loved that album when I was young and it was new but the years have not been kind to it I think.
