I found this clipping in an old book. It was published on October 2, 1949. Name of news paper ripped out, but says Tribune Harold. (Waco?)
I'm restless and thinking about you tonight and Lyne. John's dad is sick and it makes me sure miss you. Carter was saying over the last few days he has been missing you too... I guess with Harper turning five its a sad reminder and blessing at he same time to see all the ways our family has changed in the past five years. I'm weeping cause I sure miss that laugh of yours. I sure miss our talks. Those talks help me be the person I am today. I just miss you Dad. Mom is still so sad without you too. I try to keep her busy- I never leave her and I make sure she knows I am here always. It will never be the same without you. I love you always, you know that. I'm gonna get some rest- I hope you are watching over me... I feel like you are. â¤##imported-begin##Tara##imported-end##
Mrs. Pace, Tara, and family --
I was so sad to learn of your loss. Please know that I am praying for all of you to have the comfort, strength, and peace of our Lord. Mr. Pace was blessed to have had such a loving and supportive wife and family! I am in the eastern U.S. right now visiting our girls and their families. I wish I could be there with you, but please know that I love you and am praying for you! May God bless and keep you all -- Mary##imported-begin##Mary Morris##imported-end##
Roy and I grew up together on south 5th street back in our early days. We played together many times but he always seemed bigger and stronger than I. I watched him practice football at Woodson Field between games and saw his intensity to play hard ball.
I regret his loss and can only hope for the best to his family.##imported-begin##Vernon Starnes##imported-end##
