Peanut was one fine man! He drove Kaye's school bus when she was little and then our daughter Bridgette's bus as well. He will be sadly missed, but we hope to ride his bus in heaven one fine day.

Peanut was one nice fellow; we loved him dearly.
Rode his bus for many years and he was ALWAYS super nice to all, although there were times when we probably did not deserve it.
Love and prayers to Erma and family-Donna Denton Sisk
