Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Mississippi boys grow up to be fine young men and you were certainly that.....I remember many good times in our little community of Darlove and the Hyer boys were always "doing their thing". Your mom means so much to our family and her heart is breaking at this time; however, God is good and will hold her close because she too belongs to him. Thanks for the memories........

You will always have a special place in my memory. I remember the day when we were kids, you were staying with Mama and Papa and you taunted me by not staying to play with me. You were bouncing on the barbed wire fence in front of the hall berry tree on the ditch bank and fell off an bit your tongue (real bad). I will remember all of the fun things we did growing up like bush fishing at night on lake Washington; the times that you, Babo and I would go frog giging on the Bogue; skinney dipping and all that kid stuff. We when through grammar school and high school with each other and then went away to college together. We played on the same football team. Yea, we argued, and fought, and then defended each other because we cared so much about each other. I remember that you were the best friend I ever had. So long good buddy, for a while anyway.

Your journey here on earth has ended, but not without many memories. The laughter and joys that we shared growing up helped both of us to become better people. I am proud to have been your sister and I loved you. God bless Louise, Ron and family and James.
