Hey! I’m one of his grandchildren and I thought it was neat to see a mini biography of him. My grandma was an amazing man. Brave, strong, sweet, funny- the whole package! I don’t know if you knew the grandchildren’s names but if you do, then hello. I’m Emma 🙂
I lived with papaw (Alfred) for most of my life. We were close. He’d always find a way to make me laugh or smile. And my mamaw (leola) too! He loved us all and he will be respected. Today marks one year of his passing.. it’s very hard for us but we can make it..? Ah,, this is starting to get sappy. But thank you for writing this.
