I became friends with "JL" my last year of high school(73). He had a great sense of humor. I own a house on Frackleton that has your Dad's initials in the concrete step on the front of the house. Andy Morris, my ex, said JL used to have some crazy parties next door.
Your dad was so sweet and fun. I was dating his brother ron and your dad would pick me up in his big, long car and make it bounce up and down!! It was heartbreaking when he left this world. I hope you got to know your grandparents. His mother was the epitome of kindness. I have nothing but the sweetest of memories. I wish I were here to go.
