Momma Bea left before you, and It´s been almost 18 years since you left us. My mom passed and Buddy has been gone a few years too. I think I´m the only Daniels in the family that is still living here on the coast. I have ten children now, half are adults. I am carrying on the family name Papa Walt. See you heaven, love Kenny.
