***********
Harlon's (Big) son, Jody took his death really hard. Jody stayed and covered his Dad's coffin with a shovel and tears. It was hard to stand there and watch Jody but I was thinking how much it took for this young man to show his Dad this last respect.
**********
Harlon got his nickname Big (he was the biggest of the twins) from his sister Fern 'Stidham' Brinkley. Big's twin's,nickname is Lid he was the littlest of the two boys.
