Losing Floyd!

Our friend Floyd Botts passed away on Tuesday morning after a lifetime of alcoholism mixed with diabetes. He straightened up his act a little these last couple of years but alas, it was kind of late. He fell and broke his arm this past summer and the hospital said it would have been more than his body could have stood to have set it. He leaves 3 of his own children and a couple of step-children and a sweet young wife, LaKrisha, 31 years young. Floyd is 55 and resting comfortably now for the first time in a long time. There was a viewing today and several of us braved a torrential rain storm to go to his "viewing". There will be a memorial service at his home this week-end.
I pray that he is gone to Heaven and resting there. He is a dear friend and I so loved to mess with him and tease him lots. I'll miss teasing him. He has a group of friends that will miss him also. He held a special place in my heart and always will.
