Tracy has been in my life since he was 15 years old. I looked upon him as a son and he is the father of two fine young men. my grandsons, John Marshall McFadden and Morgan McFadden who were well trained by their father as superior outdoorsmen and men that I would choose to be with me in any life threatening experience. God's word says that a tree is known by its fruit and that says all that need to be said about Tracy.
He was not without a few faults but his strong and good points far outweighed any defects in his character. He loved me without reservation and without expectation of anything in return and he would quickly be at my side at any time of need and gave a 110 percent effort out of pure love and devotion which was unearned on my part. It was my honor and joy to share many family occasions and hours at out ranch in Kerrville, Texas and on other bow hunting and Duck and goose hunting adventures. It was with pride that I saw and participated with him in becoming a Master Mason along with my Grandson ,John Marshall ,following in my footsteps. He was a super salesman and never met a stranger. He was a good father to his sons and he was both a son and my friend and I shall miss him terribly in the days and years to come. But good memories are far stronger than death and it is with those that I intend to fill the great void that had been left in my heart by his untimely passing. Tracey Don, mark the trail ahead for me well, as I shall soon be coming down that same road. Listen closely and you will hear me l calling out your name and God willing we shall meet again across the river.
Papa
