Smile. You know he'd want you to. I have never known and will probably never find anyone with as big a heart as Dusty had. He was always there, and he still is. I can see him now, with that big goofy smile, trying not to laugh at all the silly things he sees us doing. He was such a comedian, and he could never let anyone around him be in a foul mood. He loved everyone, and we were all part of a family, blood related or not. I remember hauling butt on the powerlines, laughing like crazy while we were being bounced around. And jumping in the car and going to Atlanta and Savannah for the weekend on a whim. Or heading up to Bussey Point for quiet time and fishing, carving our names in picnic tables. They're still there, a reminder of all the good times. I remember when he first saw Ryus, on the sonogram, and it looked like baby Ryry was giving us the finger. Dusty said "Yup, that's my boy!" And he's watching now, smiling down on us, on ALL of us. Every day I see a little more of Dusty in Ryus, and I know he's gonna be just like him, and we've all got our hands full!
