Veda, Darrell, Joey, Debbie and Rick, so sorry about the loss of your husband/Dad. He was a good man and will be missed by many of people, especially the kids who he turned into hunters and fisherman. I know you left an impact of a lot of those kids lives for as the got older they loved the sport that you taught them. All the kids that I knew turned out to be good kids and still hunt and fish today. You kept these young kids off the streets, at the lake and in the woods and off the streets. You were definitely loved by everyone. I will keep your loving wife Veda, your kids, grandkids and great great grandkids in my thoughts and prayers. RIP A.D. for I know David was at the pearlies gates greeting you with open arms.
