I moved in with Jimmy and Joyce Anderson, during my high school years, we were just a couple of houses up from the Griswell family on Pickett Bridge Road. I just remember going over to their house and he and Jimmy fishing and frog gigging in the pond by their house. We had so much fun having cook outs and holiday gatherings. I think it is incredible that he and Wanda were married for 63 years. That is amazing! What a celebration of life well lived. Thoughts of love and condolences for the whole amazing family.
