To all the family memebers and friends of Boyd (Red), I'll never forget Red as he was my Father-in-Law for many years. Red had a red hot temper to go with the hair, but was just as quick to share a joke or one of his famous humorous lines ie..."cut it three times, it's still too short", or "sitting there with your teeth in your mouth and your elbow halfway up your arm" or those legs run right up and make an ass of themselves" etc.... As everyone who knew Red, knows he had a million one liners that could make even the most sour person laugh. Red was always busy, never completly idle. Sometimes he was simply rearranging things, but he had to stay busy. Red took family life seriously and took great pains to be sure his wife Karen was well taken care of. I respected him deeply for this selfless act. He loved his children and grandchildren, and spent good quality time with each of them. I know my son Shane will miss his PaP Pap for as long as he lives. I myself found myself welling up when I found out of his passing,even though I hadn't seen him in several years, for I loved him too. He will be missed by all who knew him. Dawn
