WOWO, It has certainly been an HONOR to have known you for 40+ years. I will never forget all of the good times that I have shared at your house with Clara. I will always remember you for your humming around the barn and also all of the good times that we had at the little house beside the fire station. I know you will be sorely missed by everyone, especially all of the people in Ruffin who knew you. The Whistle Stop and all of the fund raisers at the Fire Department will not be the same. Tommy and Nanny are smiling now that you are finaly together again.
My thoughts and Prayers are with you Always and FOREVER.
