My maternal grandfather, you will be truly missed. I will never forget the summer we spent with you and you burned the kitchen down because you forgot you started cooking catfish!

Kid, Kid. Kid...You gotten that nickname for who you were with children's. You had your ways of being playful with teasing and laughing with them. Afterward you just talked and had a fun conversations with them. And "ALL" the children's loved you just as much. Now with the young teens and adults, come clean with due respect around his place of business...A man with a big wolf tickets rolled up in soft tissue's...My Employer, My Supervisor; Kid..I have heard very fascinating stories from you...
