Randy Collard
Zack, Texie, and his Mom were VERY special to my folks, George and Dorcas Collard, and my sister and me. He was an occasional baby sitter to us that we tormented, but loved. However, the best story is on my Dad. He had Zack come help on the farm plowing. The second day, Dad called my Mom and said it was odd, but Zack had come to work with his pockets stuffed with snacks. She asked, "Did you stop for lunch and take him into town to eat yesterday." He replied, "Well, you know I never think to stop to eat lunch and no, I guess we didn't." She said, "Well, George you nut, he's a growing boy and he needs to eat. Stop right now and take him in to lunch."
This, like all our interactions with them, were indicative of their great character, always kind, honest, and caring and never complaining. It was an honor to know and count them as friends and we look forward to seeing them again in heaven! Blessing to you all. Randy Collard.
