Kortnee Nelson wrote a sympathy message

“For anyone who knew him, knows they just lost the best friend they ever had, till we run into eachother again in traffic, I was just heading north to the “in laws” and he was heading south just chugging along in the rat race pushing that sweet 18wheeler he was super proud of, drive safe pops, I knew their was no coincidences in this lifetime. The man that taught me there’s no such thing as good look or bad look, just decisions and consequences. Till we meet again Heavenly Father. .”
