ROBERT STAFFORD

April 4, 2024

I remember Mrs. Guyton's smile and charm during gatherings at the Stafford's residence. I was tasked to bring collard greens. I would purchase greens from Kenny's Smokehouse. The first Mrs. Guyton got a taste of those greens she certified them official. My tacit task from that day forward was to bring greens from KS. I executed my task with precision. I didn't want to disappoint a kind, sweet, and loving soul. That and I didn't want to get the look - y;all know the look. Lol. Rest in paradise Mrs. Guyton. Love you always. Robert.
