I adored this guy as far back as I can remember. He was only 5 years older than me so He was more like a Big Brother to me than an Uncle!! He watched over me & protected me when I was growing up, but also he could be quit annoying like a big brother!!! He was very special to me & a blessing to all those who knew & loved him. He is in Heaven now with his big sisters (my mom Celia, JoAnn, & Wanda) & big brother Welby A. & his mom & dad!! I miss him so much. I feel So blessed I got to talk TO him just a few days ago. I know he heard what I was saying even though he could not speak. I know he knows that everyone loved him dearly & he WILL be missed!! Picture of me & my sweet uncle a few years ago & his sister Celia with him letting you all know he´s with her! Just like her to make him shave that beard off!!
