Personal note from JR’s daughter Mandy

I am saddened to say JR, my dad, has passed away. I wanted to create this site so that anyone that would like to leave a message, a memory, a story, etc. can do so. I love all the memories and would love to hear everyone else’s memories of my dad. His wishes were to be cremated so at this time there is no plan of a service. I know he loved his life in Corsicana with all of his old friends and deep down I think he missed that part of his life and hated leaving. Thank you in advance for being a part of our life and being good to my dad.
