He was the apple of Papa Doug's eye. Fate brought Dylan another grandfather who was with him for the last 16 years of his life. His mentor, his buddy, his "Smokin Joe". They have been blessed to have each other, became partners in crime, but most of all, the love they shared between them will be a bond that will never be broken. Dylan enjoyed diesel trucks and heavy equipment operations and mechanics. He loved to be in the woods, tracking and hunting deer.
