Rest in Peace Dad.

3 years ago today, the funniest man i knew, went to Heaven....
MAN are they sure lucky....
If you ever wondered where we came up with such a name for my little man (Lewie, well, actually Lewis....) here is where....

my father, Lewis L Norris Jr. and Taylor girl back in 2006.
Pappy, Taylor and Mimi....
Me and Dad in 2007, when he got to go to the awards in Las Vegas, either CMA's or AMA's. How cool is that? He was so excited, and that was just 6 months before he passed away....
Vegas, 2007.
This was about 3 and a half weeks before he passed away.... back in Tennessee.
Our very last photos together.
MAN, i wish you guys could have known him. His sense of humor was just something else....

Rest in peace, Daddy-o.

The last three pictures....I'm bawling. Reminds me of me and my Dad and our last days together and how I cherished every second of them. He had a big chair like that too and was also on oxygen. Thanks for the cry, in a good way. I needed it. Hugs to you as you remember your Dad. - G

AWWW, Ash that was a visit that you really needed. I think that visit was the turning point in your life for the better. It opened doors that had been shut all of your life. You also found the closier that you needed and wanted. Love you!!!
