Martha---You know how some people dear to you from the past just pop into your mind? Last night that happened to me with you and Tiny. So Jan said, look them up...and so I did today. WOW...so many great memories back at Texas. But it was also a sad moment when I learned of Tiny's death. What a sweet heart that big guy had...and so genuine.
I hope you will contact me sometime so I can remember more memories with you'all. My email address is [email protected]. Jan and I just had our 48th anniversary...lots of memories with you'all during the 60s/70s. Hope you will email us. Much love to you...we're both older now, but I can still remember both of your voices.

We are so sorry to hear about Mike. He was a wonderful neighbor! We will always remember him and his wonderful smile and his thoughts on many business and other issues he so pleasantly shared. We always enjoyed seeing and visiting with Mike. He was such a gentleman and pleasant to be around. We shall look forward to seeing Him again in heaven! Our love!
