Uncle Zeke had an easy going personality and a quick wit, these were two traits that made him a blast to be around. We spent a lot of time on four wheeler rides exploring the country side there in Wayne County. Sharing the beauty of the woods and the sky. Those are some of our fondest memories.
He was an inspiration and influence on our daughters, they dearly loved him.
To say he will be missed just doesn’t do his memory justice.
We love you Zeke.
