**********************************************
My little brother Jimmy, he & I were inseparable from birth, we were practically joined at the hip. We were 18 months apart. We were together ever minute of the day. We were into everything, mischievous, curious and always on the go. When momma would let us out in the morning we wouldn't come back til dark. We grew up working, always had chores to do, work in the fields etc. We never minded, we didn't know anything else. It was a hard life but a lot of fun we had a lot of free time & fun times to go along with it all. As we got older & went our separate ways we still were around each other as often as we could with our wives & kids. He worked long hours, a lot of overtime & it was difficult for us getting together we saw less & less of each other.
Jimmy developed early onset Alzheimer's like Barbara & Momma & suffered a stroke & died shortly after his 50th Birthday.
Jimmy was the best of our family, love you & miss you brother! - Larry -
