So many memories!!! We all know what a great husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather he has always been but I alone can speak on a brother role for him. He was beside being my brother he was my friend from the day I was born. I cherish my memories of growing up with him. I don’t ever remember being mad at him or he with me. Even when I was the little sister pain he had to take with him on Sat mornings to River Park Theater.
