I don’t think a person truly appreciates someone until they’re gone. My dad, Thomas L. Pfaff, passed away six years ago at the age of 86 and I still catch myself thinking of him almost every day. Little things on the farm remind me of him, such as a new calf birthed out of one of his cows or walking by his tractor, now parked in our shed. Even the chicken catalog that came in the mail the other day reminded me of him. He holds a special place in my heart.
