Dan & Deborah Gamblin wrote a sympathy message

“In loving memory of John Allen Farris, Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time We will miss him dearly as we do Mildred. We put on the Goliad PRCA rodeo for 20 plus years and came to know these two very well. They pulled their motorhome into our front yard and stayed through 3 rodeos in the area. We always knew where to eat that served pie. John was a fan of good food. We would always celebrate his and Charlie Tindol's birthday at our rodeo on Thur”
