**********************************************************

Some may be curious about the inscription on dad's headstone - "May The Circle Be Unbroken." In the 1960's Marty Robbins was a very popular song writer and singer. Mom and dad always listened to the radio when we traveled anywhere, and they usually sang along. Marty Robbins was always on the radio and one of his songs was "Will The Circle Be Unbroken." This was one of dad's favorite songs and the one we remember him singing the most. Yes we changed the wording slightly because there is no doubt that our circle will remain unbroken.
