Mrs Kinnamon i want to tell you i am really sorry about your loss. I remember my younger years of growing up with you both as my neighbor. I used to visit with you both daily. All the times we spent in the back porch talking about everything. Also the time coming to your door telling you i was in big trouble for breaking my brothers walkie talkie. Oh all the wonderful memories i had. Mr. Kinnamon will be dearly missed. Nancy Badman Robbins
