I totally added my Uncle's (his son) pics by accident. I Apologize.

LOVE YOU GRANDADDY!!!! I WAS HIS ONLY GRANDDAUGHTER,AND HE HAD ME SPOILED!!
Right before he got really sick in Arkansas, before he moved back to Plainview.... AND AFTER MOVING THERE...For months He would call me all hours of the day/night while sipping his drink...and would cry. Sayin how much he loved his only four girls. My Grandma, his two daughters, and (me) his only granddaughter. He knew he was declining health wise and was worried about his girls being good after he was gone. My Grandaddy never cried... so that was major for me.

I MISS HIM and MY GRANNY OGREA BEYOND WORDS!!!
