He enjoyed drinking coffee, watching television, eating snacks, watching Sooner football, and teaching his boys about traditional Seminole ways. He always said his greatest accomplishments in life were getting clean and sober, watching his oldest son find sobriety and turn his life around, and experiencing life as a grandfather through his youngest son’s three children, Mek-ko Derek Tulsey Jones Jr., Merrick Matthew Tulsey Jones, and Gabriella Rosa Illyce Parra. He loved both of his boys equally, with wild abandon, and his unconditional love for his boys was an earthly embodiment of the unfathomable holy love of Jesus Christ.
