My dear cousin, what a life we have had. Fun, fun. fun, Must say we have had our share. You will always be remembered as one of the most interesting people I ever knew. Loved your humor, quick wit and gentleness. You remind me so much of Uncle Hap, almost like looking at him along with some Aunt Jenett thrown in to help mellow you a little. Miss you big guy, love to you and peace at last.
