Hi, Dennis, this is your long-lost cousin, Leigh Jones. You used to call me Little Leigh when we played at Aunt Rene´s and Uncle Oscar´s house. I´m so sorry to read about your dad´s passing. I remember him as a kind and gentle man. I have some great photos of your mom and mine together when they were young, swimming at Cheraw State Park. Also my mom was in your parents´ wedding as a bridesmaid. They were very close when they were kids.
BTW, I married a guy from Orangeburg you may (or may not) remember, Chris Handal. He was a friend of Kent´s, I believe.
Anyway, so sorry about your father. Wishing you the best. - Little Leigh
