Susan, Lori, Joe & Barbara,
for some reason I was thinking about you all... and then came across your daddy's obit.
I am so sorry to see this, but unfortunately, life is nothing but a vapor. My mom passed in 2005 and the house is now vacated.
I can still hear your Fathers resounding voice ringing across the street.... "Joseph!!!" and next the response... "Sir!!!" or your mother's voice... "Barbara!!!" and then "Mam"... Oh how I wish...
Now I know why you all came to my rememberance; so I pray.
God bless you all.
"the girl that lived across the street from your Grandpa/Grandma Buxton"
