Dad, Even after all this time, I wonder what my life would have been like if you had been a part of it. Although I was only 4 and did not really know you, I miss you tremendously. You would be turning 65 this December and would be the proud grandfather of 5 children. I know that you would be happy with the way mom raised us. There can be no greater woman on earth. I guess you know that, because you married her. I have always been proud of you.

Buried in the Hillcrest Memorial Park in Pickens. Pickens is located in the northwestern part of SC about 40 miles north west of Greenville. Take exit 21 (Rt 178 north) off of I-85. Go north on Rt 178 about 20 miles to Pickens. Pickens is a small town and information on the exact location of the cemetery should be easy to obtain locally.
