Uncle CR and Aunt Rit were my favorites.I loved it when they would come down south(Baton Rouge)to visit.I remember staying with them for a week and they took me to places I still think about fondly.In 2011,Jack and I visited him and he took us to StLouis where he and I went up into the Arch and I could see the Cardinals baseball field. I LOVED that time and I LOVE the Cardinals.He and Aunt Rit will ALWAYS in my memories and I look forward to seeing them again in heaven.
