Cassie and Tanner (our children) loved going to Jackson to stay at grandpa Clark's. We loved drinking coffee and listening to his jokes and stories and his views on the government and such. I have never met another man quite like him.

Salt and pepper, and some onions. So simple, so delectable. He'd say, "Here. I brought ya some dog food. Just throw it in the back yard if ya don't like it."
