PAPA BEAR
(Summer of 2008)
When I was a young cub ha ha hhhaaa…
(July 1st, 1983)
I was considered stronger than average back when the Dinosaurs roamed the earth … I was very much into weight lifting, benching a clean 350 pounds, & was very much into boxing & martial arts, although I never performed professionally.
(May 31, 1985)
I was also very quiet & very shy, did not talk much, except when I was in my comfort zone among a close pack of friends. They even called me smilely in 8th grade, & was told I was too nice. Up until my preditors started taunting & trampling in my territory wanting 2 test my strength & capibilities. I did not want 2 engage in attack, but had no choice & was forced 2 do so … but it never took much, & I was always able 2 defend my territory well… They called me BEAR!!! Name stuck well, in fact, it stuck so well that it is permanately embedded on my left knuckles !!! Well, that is how BEAR came about.

Now, when I grew up, I was always close with my Grandpa, we always did everything together, from helping him fix & build things, he was an AMAZEING Craftsmen/Carpenter, 2 a sweet relaxing day of fishing 
… he called me his lil’ partner… I called him PAPA, {pronounced Baw-Paw } My Grandpa, PAPA, passed away about 12 years ago now, I took it very hard, & still miss him so much… I tattooed myself again, w/ his nickname, PAPA, on my right knuckles …

Now in February 2007, I found out from my oldest daughter Crystal that I was going 2 b a Grandpa!!! My own Father, being very Ill @ the time, fell prey from his sickness, & the angels took him 2 his eternal home in heaven on April 15th, 2007… but not before he knew that he was 2 b a Great Grandpa himself… he was very excited & glad 2 know this. My Granddaughter, Maddison, has been a blessing & healing joy 2 us all. I call her, Grandpas lil’ jumpin bean ,,, she calls me PAPA BEAR !!!
