This was taken at Mom's and Bobbie's grave site. We (Helen, myself & Bill) all hate that we didn't get to say goodbye due to the covid 19 problem. He was a believer of God, so maybe we'll see each other on the "other" side.

Special childhood memories wouldn’t be complete without involving Uncle Charlie! Our Devrow family reunions were the best: cookouts, games, Camp Shelby, Mack’s Fish Camp, Biloxi, Hattiesburg... Uncle Charlie will be missed but not forgotten.
Prayers and hugs Fonda, Jeff and all the family.
Love,
Jill
