I will miss Uncle Boots, and I cherish the time I had to know him. I have many fond memories, especially when I visited (with my three children, Audrey, Kara, and Evan) during July 2000. I will never forget Uncle Boot's reaction to seeing my children petting, holding, and playing with a rooster that was always clawing him up! He wondered what kind of spell they had put on it!!!
Our love to all the Knue family!

Uncle Boots is well loved and sadly missed by everyone that knew him. I know that he is happy now and not in pain or grieving for Aunt Dot anymore. If any of you need me let me know. I know your pain since I have lost both my parents too. I wish we could all be together without it being such a sad time. But we can rejoice that he and Aunt Dot are rejoicing in Heaven with our Heavenly Father while he prepares our place to join them when He returns! Love you all and God Will Bless You at this time in your lives!
