My deepest sympathy to my cousins Larry /Rusty and Paul/Beaver....my childhood wouldn't have been complete without the many days spent at the homestead on Green River Rd. Your mom was the sweetest, kindest and most genuine women I knew, my mother adored her. Her memories will live in my heart forever ?
