Not sure what to say?

I made a mistake and said Robert Oliver Proffitt Uncle Was Percy Oliver Proffitt.... in fact it is Florence Louise Owens Proffitt Brother Percy Oliver Owens.... my apologies for the confusion.

Thank you Monica Dudley, Nicole Clendenning, and Barbara Pate.... I don't know if you heard but Bobby O. Proffitt passed away on Mother's Day 2021 to go and be with his mother in heaven and give his Father Shirley Dale Proffitt a big HUG.... along with seeing his 2 Uncle's Samuel Smith Proffitt, and Percy Oliver Proffitt who passed on June 5th 2020. I hope they both will be Buried near Pearl E Proffitt, EARNEST D PROFFITT AND Maude Owens so the family can lay at rest where they belong...

Thank you Monica Dudley.... Sincerely, Louise Owens Proffitt Daughter-in-LAW..... Bobby's Wife.... now Widow

I miss you Mrs. Proffitt... You once introduced me to me to a maintenance man as your sons wife. I kept my hands behind my back so they would not see I did not have a ring on. It is my proud pleasure to let you know that I'm now a Mrs. Proffitt too... I can carry your name on. But I wish we could talk again like we used too.

Sandra, Butch and boys
