It's a hard transition to make when the time comes for the next generation to take over. My Dad was very good in letting me take over. He made me buy everything which made me work harder, but let me make the decisions. He taught me well and let me learn from my mistakes, which in return made me a better rancher. I miss him terribly. He died a year after I bought him out. He at 61 and me at 30 being the only boy. I miss his help. And the one thing I miss the most is when he'd tell me I was doing a good job. It's hard not to butt heads. But it's harder when their gone.
