a month without you 
“And I'll forget the world that I knew
But I swear I won't forget you
Oh, if my voice could reach back through the past
I'd whisper in your ear,
Oh darling, I wish you were here"

Look at those crystal clear blue eyes 🤍

I remember I was 26 and new to the town and staying in a house right next to yours and I looked over and there was the cutest little boy and two pitbulls and I said those are some bad@$# dogs and you looked at me and pet them and ran into the house, the rest is history and a million adventures ago. I will always remember you and cherish the short time I got to spend with you, I love you, RIP Paden,
                                                                     
                                                                     Uncle Josh

We had to make our own gym at the RV park we stayed at during Covid lockdown. Stella is supervising his bench press!

His brother and sister, making him work for his push-ups!

This pic was taken at the Hard core gym in Galveston, Tx

We worked out wherever we could, this was on the side of the highway with iron we use to secure our load.

I’m so thankful for the many hours we spent together working out. My favorite memories of him will be him and I working together, traveling the country, watching him transform from a boy into a man. During this time we were at our closest in relationship. He was full of life and healthy as ever.  I was able to teach him how to be discipline in mind, body, and Spirit. He loved working out, it was his new addiction and it was a healthy one. I was able to share with him the tools that helped me to break the chains of addiction. We got to spend time as father and son with no outside distractions, just him me and the road ahead of us. He was able to see what it looked like to put hope, faith and trust in Jesus. I’m so thankful we had this time together!

i love you forever payden. four four four.
