A Tribute to Son-in-Law

"Darryl Lane Smith"

"January 19,1971 - August 18, 2005"

This page is dedicated to my Son-in-Law, Darryl Lane Smith, who loved Me, Bonnie Sue, our Daughter Stephanie and our Grandchildren, Caleb and MayKaylah! On Wednesday Evening August 17, 2005, as he was in the Drive way of our home, I waved bye to him! I did not know that would be the last interaction between us on this side of Heaven. The 18th of August was not to old, when He went to Heaven. He had become a friend and more importantly, a brother in Christ, I miss him very much!

You know, I never will forget the day we fished in the Bass tournament on Jordan when we were all at Liberty. I never will forget the Day Caleb was born and I saw the pride in your eyes and the concern as he got here a bit early. I saw the same joy when MayKaylah arrived and that made the family complete. I never will forget the day you called me from Paul's house and your started messing with my head and you finally could hold back the laughter any longer and busted out laughing as you knew you had me on that one. It wasn't always good between us early on but God brought us through those days and through it all and I pray you knew I loved you and still do!

You and Mom got to be having a good time in Heaven!
Love you very Much Son-in-Law!
I can hear that "Mr. Bozeman" to this very Day!
