For me, I hope I can be remembered as a good son, husband and father. I hope people remember me as a honest hard working guy who always made people laugh. [Reply]   [No Email]

I have come to admire and even envy his broad wisdom, knowledge and insight, along with his character and integrity. Yes, you can pick up on all that just by reading what someone posts here.   [Reply]  [No Email]

What a wonderful tribute. We don't hear stories like that more than a few times during our lifetime. Jim   [Reply]  [No Email]

I know big boys aren't supposed to do that. I read it to my wife and cried again. Those two people touched that woman's life when she needed it most. She rewarded them well with a tribute to their giving attitude. Lots of lessons to be learned here.   [Reply]  [No Email]

The guy to me has more integrity, sincerity, compassion, and a heart of gold than most people. I don't know JD Seller, but would really like to meet him in person. He sure puts things in perspective that really make sense. I am about the age of his oldest son. I just wished my dad was a fraction of what this man is. And what you say about about yourself is exactly how I would like to be remembered also. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I hope I didn't steal your posting. That is not what I meant to do.

Funny how too many people now days want to just take advantage of everyone else, ridicule them, and try to outdo them( not to mention kriticize them if they spell a word wrong ).   [Reply]  [No Email]
