To the Pruitt family. You don't know me, but "Bill,Jr." as we called him was my second cousin.His Grandma, Aunt Maudie, was my Mother's sister. You may have heard of "Aunt Bertha", that was my mother. I've lived in Michigan since 1955 but still call Woodland Mills my home.

I get the obits from the Times and Daily...
