Cousin John and I spent a good bit of time together growing up. Then after Aunt Bertie passed away we spent time together talking about our experiences. Some of which was our service in the Military(which he spoke very little about to anyone). He was always the quiet, layed back cousin. Going to miss our talks. Love ya John.
