I got to meet him back in 1983/1984. At a family reunion in Spiro, Oklahoma. My mother was his half sister. I still have the gift he sent me from Germany for graduation. I really liked him. Wish I had known he was living her in Florida.
Losing someone who was so full of life, he kept his great sense of humor which is wonderful! I was his team mate in JROTC at Southside High School in Ft. Smith in 1971-72 and we had so many great times on the events we went to for performances at other high schools....he was the "clown" on the bus trips! I also thought he was so cute too!! He will be missed by many people who knew him!
