I am so sorry to hear of Dr. Traylor `s passing. I cut his hair and did Betty´s hair before they moved to Baton Rouge. I have missed them. When I would get to Baton Rouge I would always surprise them by going to see them. My heart breaks for the family´s loss. He was just a GODLY MAN. Love and I´ll always remember the last time we talked. As you would call me Mildred the great. Your at peace and I´m thankful your not in any pain. Love always,
