My Love for you will never Die ! I thank God for letting me share in your life for a season !❤️❤️❤️❤️

I had the great fortune of getting to know Danny's Dad, Melvin, when I first moved to East TN in 1975. Melvin had the sweetest spirit of any man I've ever known. He was kind, generous with his time and took me on many Smoky Mountain adventures during those days. We hunted grouse, fished for Brookies and took the one day challenge hike from Clingman's Dome to Cades Cove twice. He told me that the same night that he got word of Danny's death, the church he was serving as pastor burned down. No man should have to experience these things. Most men would crumble and disappear into depression for the rest of their lives. Not Melvin. His gift of friendship to me and others like me was his way of continuing to love his only son. His smile and jolly laughter lightened every room he entered. I never had the priviledge of meeting Danny, but I did experienced the highest honor of hearing his Father's pride echo through the mountain hollers of the Smokies.
I see Melvin's smile in these photos. I can imagine them hunting, fishing hiking, and worshipping God together. No man should lose a son so loved to man's unconscionable conflicts. No son should be robbed of a lifetime with his unmatchable father. If not for the hope and realization of everlasting life, these men were robbed completely. Because of Jesus, though, they will share an eternity of joy fishing together from the River of Life.
