We really enjoyed getting to know Jerry again these last couple of years. I'm sorry he never got to make that trip to Alaska to go fishing with us. We will miss him but we will see him again. Aunt Elwanda and family, we are praying for your peace and comfort.

I have some great memories of you, me, Keith, and Junior in Lilbourn, and Hornersville, and Keiser. We had a lot of fun, and we got into our share of mischief. I know Aunt ElWanda can vouch for that. You, and your brothers and sisters are the best. Rest In His Holy Arms cousin.
