I'm getting old.....
Bentnail was here in the game as long as I can remember. He was fearless in expressing what he believed and what he thought of you. But, he never held any differences against you, choosing to be your friend. It meant you had to be just as fearless in returning the same to him in the face of his unique brand of humor. He respected that and always held true to being your friend. He had a way of helping everyone around him toughen up a bit and grow a sense of humor.
I will miss Bentnail. I pray the good Lord takes care of him after his hard fought journey. And that the Lord helps his family in this time of need. My prayers are with Mrs. Pfaff, Ed was the Love of her Life.
