Serendipitously, I ended up living in the Austin area as did he, Kathleen, Billy and even Rebecca (for awhile) As an adult, I grew to appreciate his humor and intellect!!...

Kathleen and Rebecca, I amas so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

My condolences, J. D. Talley
