This is the most well known story by everyone and one of the most memoriable.
I was about 3-4 years old and GeGe and Papa had a three wheeler, well every time I was over to visit there was always 2 things that had to happen every day! The first was going down to Circle K with Papa, the second was have Papa ride me around for hours and hours on the three wheeler. Well one day Papa got tired of having to ride me around he decided to fix it to where i couldnt go fast and just let me go ride around the yard alone. Well I one day I had stopped in the drive way I think to pick someone up do have them ride around with me and the the spark plug had misfired and actually started a little fire, here comes PaPA running out the door, and he tells me to get off and he bends over and starts throwing sand on the motor as if a dog was digging. We immediatly started cracking up as it was super funny, and needless to say the fire was out. Papa had saved the day. From that day forward this story gets told every chance it can, and Papa is known as the Sand Dancer!
I love you and miss you sooo much PAPA! There really is not a day that I dont think about you or miss you. But you always told me as we sat outside on the porch step at night with Skipper to not to worry if it was your time because you were ready and you knew the white pearly gates were open for you! I love you always PAPA!! <3 always Your Little Princess!!
