I spent my high school years occasionally spending time with Johnie and Betty as they were our neighbors. We traded rabbits and chickens and raw milk that was a stable in our daily meals. Also loved when he went mushroom hunting because I knew we´d have some more good eats. He was always giving me life advice and teaching me about hunting coyotes and how to better our cattle herd. Good memories. I´ll get to spend eternal time with him when I meet him there, praise Jesus.
