I have known "Uncle Bill" for over 37 years, as I am the husband of Sandie, his niece. I loved to listen to his stories about how farming in ND was back in the 1920's and 30's when horses were used in farming. I got to know how hard it was in those days, for both the farmers and the animals. I enjoy a good cigar, and would always tell him I had one for him, to which he would always reply with a grin..."I'll get to it later." He was a good man who looked after everyone who needed looking after. I will miss him. It was a privilege to know him for all these years.
