Jr. Was a great cousin. We spent much of our youth at each other's home, until he and family moved to Virginia. We lost touch due to different places and lifestyle.

He told me once that he would Always miss Virginia but he liked Indiana. I offer condolences to his two daughters and x wife Sue. God bless
