I haven't gotten to see you since the summer of 2006. We spent many hours out on the rock dyke at the Arkansas River fishing. We had many long talks about life and it's ups and downs. You gave me a lot of good advice and I appreciated you more than you will ever know. I love you Bettie Sue; I know you are with your "June Bug" now. A.J. you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Bettie Sue was a very special lady who will be greatly missed.

WE go back in life a long way first as neighbors and schoolmates (the good old days sure could use those again) then on to making our lives and growing up and never forgetting who we were or where we come from! Then you married into the family to a cousin who by the way is more like a brother to me so you became My Lil Sis. We always kept in touch and talked each other thru many good times and lots of sad ones,too!! I sure will miss you and the visits! God knew you were tired so He called you home! You have lots of FAMILY there so as you stroll over Heaven with them them we can look forward to seeing you again!! Until then we have our memories to keep us warm. Love you forever! Doug says Hello and sends his LOVE!!!!
