Dewey, I am going to miss you being over at dads and you falling asleep after dinner and then I would ask Dewey did you sleep good you would then say I wasnt sleeping you goof.
You would have literally give anyone the shirt off of your back. You were always there for anyone who needed you to be there. You were a gentle giant and a wonderful man. I love you and I am going to miss you. I wish you could ask dad for just one more smoke, so at least we could tell you goodbye. Say hi to Grandpa Ralph for us. Thanks for everything Uncle Doug.
