DeDe and Bill, You may not remember us but we will always remember your Dad. When we first came to America and lived with my uncle and aunt, Sam and Pauline Heslip your Dad was a great source of encouragement to us. It was 1967 and your folks attended the Moss Point Presbyterian Church, where my Uncle Sam was pastor. We actually still remember your wedding too, to which you all so graciously invited us. Our prayers are with you.
