 Cotton loved to fish, play pool and tell stories of his many 
			adventures. He had lived an interesting life and worked at jobs from 
			whaling to prize fighting. Construction was his main field of work 
			and he ultimately retired from the maintenance department at 
			Wal-Mart in Troy, MO. He was much loved and will be greatly missed 
			by his family and many friends.
